Es’hailSat, the Qatar Satellite Company, has announced its partnership with Total Media Cast (TMC) to provide Digital Satellite News Gathering Services (DSNG) and Outdoor Broadcast Van (OBVAN) services in Qatar and across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
The two companies have agreed to collaborate in providing these services to all clients, with a specific focus on news agencies and journalists, particularly for news gathering and related purposes.
President and CEO of Es’hailSat Ali Ahmed Al Kuwari stated that this partnership will add DSNG and OBVAN services to complement Es’hailSat’s Teleport and satellite hotspot.
The growing number of live events in Qatar and the Middle East need dedicated news-gathering services, together with teleport and satellite infrastructure to ensure the quality of service for premier broadcasters across the region, Kuwari added.
Founder and General Director of TMC Isam Ayyad said Qatar is ascending as a powerhouse in major sports and global events.
Ayyad believed in the necessity of the partnership with Es’hailSat to provide top-tier service as the DSNGS and OBVAN facility are steadfast guarantees, ensuring exceptional quality during these pivotal events.
TMC was established at the beginning of the second decade of the new millennium by experienced individuals from different channels and broadcast companies worldwide. TMC aims to provide clients with expert broadcast and operations consultation studies, digital media management, integration services, news gathering and media logistics services, and space segment lease services.
Es’hailSat provides satellite, broadcast, teleport and managed services from Doha to its customers throughout MENA. Es’hailSat’s infrastructure includes two satellites and a 50,000 sqm teleport facility that provides reliable and robust connectivity services.
Es’hailSat’s satellites are a symbol of Qatar’s commitment to free and independent communication, especially since Es’hailSat is considered a key part of Qatar National Vision 2030 to move the country from a carbon-based to a knowledge-based economy.
The FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 and the AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 are an ideal opportunity to showcase Es’hailSat’s capabilities and services.
