FINCONS GROUP Wins 2021 NAB Show Product of the Year Award with Univision

30/11/2021

With the support of Fincons Group, Univision - a major American Spanish-language television network - has developed a new Broadcasting App to enable personalization of viewer experience over both broadband connected and linear TV.The app leverages ATSC 3.0 technology and innovative integrations to provide viewers with dynamic content both via Broadband (OTT) and Broadcast (OTA) connection.

The app enables entirely unprecedented functions for OTA TV, such as the delivery of additional information regarding news anchors in the Meet the local news team navigation node, access to QR coded additional content and dynamic local weather forecast. For OTT viewers, the app also provides access to on-demand local news clips.

From a technology perspective this app, which integrates the A3FA Consortium Framework, is one of the first to leverage the ATSC 3.0 standard to deliver enhanced viewing experiences to both connected and unconnected TVs.

NAB Show Product of the Year Award Winners were selected by a panel of industry experts in 16 categories and announced in a live awards ceremony on NAB Amplifyon November 3. To be eligible for an award, nominated products had to come from companies scheduled to exhibit in either the 2020 or 2021 NAB Show and are delivered within the 2021 calendar year.

Nominees like Fincons and Univision are revolutionizing the way people experience media and entertainment, said NAB Executive Vice President of Conventions and Business Operations Chris Brown. The 2021 NAB Show Product of the Year Awards highlight the best of what's new and celebrates the breakthroughs and advancements within the content industry.

As the market continues to evolve towards hybrid broadcast-broadband models, greater personalization of viewer experience and new monetization paradigms, Fincons is firmly positioned to lead the way, helping its customers through business and technological innovation, and ATSC3 broadcasting apps represent an important step of this transformation in the industry, adds Francesco Moretti, Fincons Group Deputy CEO and CEO International.
