Eutelsat Group has been chosen by SABA WORLD for the delivery of free-to-air educational content to students across the MENA region, in partnership with the Iraqi Ministry of Education.
SABA WORLD is a leading provider of added-value services for the broadcast industry in Iraq, the Middle East and neighbouring countries. Through this new, multi-year contract, it will leverage the unparalleled coverage of the EUTELSAT 7 West A satellite of the MENA region to deliver unprecedented access to a diverse range of educational and informative channels. Supporting the educational goals of students, educators, and life-long learners across the region and especially in Iraq, the new platform gives them enhanced access to information and learning materials.
EUTELSAT 7 West A is part of the leading 7/8° West video neighbourhood, delivering premium coverage of the Middle East including the Gulf States, as well as North Africa and North-West Africa, and reaching 95% of homes across the region.
Laurence Delpy, President of the Video Business Unit at Eutelsat commented: “We are deeply honoured to be selected by SABA WORLD to support them delivering educational content across the MENA region, making learning more accessible and more enjoyable than ever before. Our partnership with SABA WORLD, who play an important role as an added value reseller in the region, gives us a privileged access into the Iraqi market and beyond, and we are delighted to be working together. This agreement highlights the crucial role that satellite has to play in providing resources that advance social and educational goals, even in hard-to-reach areas.”
