The Fijian Broadcasting Corporation (FBC) has achieved a remarkable feat by winning two distinguished awards at the Asia Pacific Broadcasting+ Awards 2025. This recognition celebrates FBC’s innovative strides, particularly with the introduction of its digital streaming platform, Viti+. Tailored for local audiences and the Fijian diaspora, Viti+ is transforming how content is delivered throughout the region.
Additionally, FBC garnered accolades for its groundbreaking live sports coverage, notably the high-quality streaming of the Fijian Drua’s Super Rugby matches. The content is delivered through the advanced Ultrix Platform developed by Ross Video and Gencom Technology, showcasing FBC’s commitment to utilizing cutting-edge technology.
Acting CEO Vimlesh Sagar expressed pride in his team’s efforts, emphasizing that the success achieved in broadcasting the Drua matches positions FBC among international sports broadcasting standards. Sagar credited the awards as a reflection of FBC’s unwavering dedication to innovative programming, cultural storytelling, and providing exceptional content to Fijians both at home and abroad.
These developments align with FBC’s broader mission to enhance media accessibility, as noted in previous articles discussing the establishment of a new broadcast hub in Labasa, aimed at expanding coverage for underserved regions. This ongoing evolution within FBC not only echoes the advancements in media delivery but also underscores a foundational commitment to ensuring all Fijians can engage with diverse and high-quality content.
The news serves as a promising highlight in the ongoing evolution of Fiji’s media landscape, reflecting hope for enhanced connectivity and representation in broadcasting. As FBC continues to innovate, these accolades serve as motivation for further developments and improvements in the future.
