France 24 has entered into a partnership with iflix that will result in its English language channel being made available free of charge to all iflix users in Asia.
It will be added to iflix News, a 24-hour news hub that aggregates live news streams, clips and linear feeds from international, regional and local news authorities. The channel will be available on both iflix VIP and iflix Free, while France 24’s daily show The Debate will soon also be made available on demand on iflix.
Commenting on the development, Craig Galvin, iflix global head of content, said: “With iflix News, we set out to deliver the most comprehensive news coverage to our users, on their terms, and we are delighted to welcome France 24 on board as we continue to expand this offering.”
Marie-Christine Saragosse, chairwoman and CEO of France Médias Monde, added: “At France 24, we strive to make our content available as easily as possible to the viewers across the world and in that regard, we’re very enthusiastic to be joining iflix, one of the most dynamic digital broadcasters in Asia”.
