Mediagenix has announced that it has been selected to supply global broadcaster France Médias Monde (FMM) with its Content Scheduling solution for all of France 24’s global linear channels and on-demand platform. The objective of France 24 was to acquire a cloud-based system that could scale across platforms and languages, as Mediagenix has claimed in a statement.

FMM operates French international broadcasting, comprising news channel France 24 (broadcast in French, English, Arabic and Spanish), news and current affairs public radio station RFI (which broadcasts worldwide in French and in 16 other languages), and radio station Monte Carlo Doualiya, which broadcasts in Arabic from Paris to the Middle East, Mauritania and Djibouti.

To try to modernize and unify its operations, France 24 chose the AI-powered, cloud-based solution of Mediagenix, which is designed with the intention of enabling customers to plan and schedule, to operate, and to scale-up and go multiplatform without hitting the brick wall of spiraling costs and operational complexities.

Paris-based training specialist Lapins Bleus Formation will provide training to France 24 staff on how to best use Mediagenix’s scheduling solution, which will go live for FMM next year.

“This partnership with Mediagenix is a critical part of equipping our France 24 channels with the best scheduling and content management solutions”, affirmed Pamela David, Engineering Manager for TV & Systems Integration at France Médias Monde. “The Mediagenix scheduling solution gives our staff the ultimate flexibility to adjust schedules as major events happen and react to changing news priorities”.

“France Médias Monde is a truly global broadcaster, and France 24’s journalism and newsgathering is more important than ever in today’s challenging world”, added Françoise Semin, Chief Commercial Officer at Mediagenix. “We are therefore delighted that France Médias Monde chose Mediagenix’s award-winning scheduling solution to provide the critical flexibility and agility that France 24 needs”.
