EBS’ scheduling system Pawa, which will be used in-house, will provide Viasat World’s ever-expanding portfolio of operators and partners with localised press listings, Highlights and EPGs as well as high-res images and quality metadata.

Vice President of Viasat World’s Products and Channels, Karin Heijink, comments, “This new system represents an important milestone in our new company’s mission to become a modern, innovative global broadcaster. We have exciting plans to expand our business and what really impressed us about the Pawa technology was that as we grow, this system grows with us.”
