All of these are inseparable from the technical support of Livecom.

It is reported that in order to strengthen the media cooperation between China and Africa, CCTV video news agency set up a special news content service line for African media - "Africa link" in 2013, which provides CCTV's video news content and live broadcast signal of major events for the contracted African media. Livecom is the builder and maintainer of this African video transmission channel. With the positive effect and influence of the deepening cooperation between China and Africa, this African video transmission channel has gradually attracted 31 mainstream radio and television media from 30 African countries, and the number is still increasing.
At the third China Africa media cooperation forum in 2016, China Africa media upgraded "Africa link" to "Africa link union", realizing content interaction and sharing for the first time, becoming a new mechanism and platform for China Africa media cooperation. As the technical supporter behind, Livecom witnessed and participated in this "line" and finally became a "network". The media cooperation between China and Africa is also more convenient and far-reaching. We are very proud!
