The Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission, Mr. Emeka Mba, has inspected a satellite facility belonging to the Computer Warehouse Group that will serve as the support base for the soon to be launched SES digital television platform.
During the inspection, Mba praised CWG’s vision in introducing a free- to-air Digital-to-Home TV to the Nigerian broadcasting climate, saying, “The idea of a free-to-air satellite TV platform is novel to the TV experience of an average Nigerian.”
The NBC DG said the coverage capacity of the free-to-air satellite TV platform would be instrumental in the quest to take quality broadcasting to every nook and cranny of the nation.
He said, “More so, it will allow indigenous stations compete well with regional and global ones, in terms of picture and content quality.”
He added, “I assure you that NBC will provide the necessary support CWG requires to make this project a success.”
However, CWG’s Head, Presales, Mr. Gbenga Odegbami, said the company offered integrated Information and Communications Technology solutions that add value to the operations of diverse clientele, using highly skilled and well-motivated workforce.
“At inception, CWG was basically an Information Technology infrastructure sales firm. The group
has since evolved into a pan-African ICT Powerhouse, with focus on enabling businesses through strategic partnerships with world-class organizations and Ordinary Equipment Manufacturers.”
CWG recently innovated her business model to be based on subscription and cloud computing under an umbrella aptly tagged, ‘CWG2.0’.
Explaining the business concept, Odegbami said that “CWG 2.0 is a cloud-based subscription business model birthed and driven by the quest to help Small and Medium Enterprises grow and make notable social impact.”
This, he said, “includes Openshopen, an e-commerce platform that allows shop owners open their own virtual stores online; and SMERP, an Enterprise Resource Planning solution, built to assist business owners manage their Accounting and Financial Record Keeping.”
“Our strategic collaboration with SES Astra, a foremost global satellite company, to bring the first direct to home digital TV is an integral part of our CWG 2.0 vision. The partnership entails SES providing space segment, using their ASTRA 2F satellite, at 28.2 degrees East, while CWG will manage the teleport services required to project the signals to viewers, using high operational standards,” he added.
The Founder and Chief Executive Officer, CWG, Mr. Austin Okere, had earlier commended the NBC for its efforts in ensuring that the nation beats the ITU June 17 deadline for migration to digital TV broadcasting.......
