Speaking on the deal, Eyal Altshuler, Spacecom Vice-President Sales said with combined efforts from both companies, Spacecom has succeeded in bringing PanAccess’s bouquet onto the air in less than 48 hours after they began designing PanAcess’s solution.
Roland Schlichting, PanAccess CEO, remarked: “We are thrilled with Spacecom’s response speed that enabled us to be on-air quickly and efficiently. PanAccess views the growth of our broadcast base in Nigeria as an important market and we will continue to add more channels for these customers.”
