CNBC Africa reflects on Transformation in COVID-19
CNBC Africa has implemented a number of proactive and innovative measures to continue to deliver accurate, timely and informative business news
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, May 29, 2020/ -- The unfolding covid-19 pandemic is both a health and economic
crisis of historic and unprecedented scale. Other than a few sectors,
most businesses have been affected adversely. During this very difficult period, what has stayed constant is the indispensable role that media
plays in society. CNBC Africa (www.CNBCAfrica.com) has implemented a number of proactive and innovative measures
to continue to deliver accurate, timely and informative business news.
All organizations within the nuances of their own industries, have
adapted to the new normal in operations to remain relevant to their
customers. Being a Pan African business news network, the channel has
had to review its programming grid to continue exceeding expectations of our viewers. An important aspect was not only to increase interactive
engagement using technology but also look at different sectors and look
at the recovery within these sectors. To this end, CNBC Africa has risen to the challenge with the launch of the first ever virtual panel
discussion series, Business Tomorrow. The first episode aired live on
the 5th May 2020 featuring panellists across the public and private
sector. The virtual event was broadcast live across the continent, via
satellite and multiple online video platforms with a live audience.
The focus of series is to provide a platform to highlight the
devastating impacts of the pandemic. While we are all adapting and
responding in our own way CNBC Africa wants to continue to play a role
in helping individuals and communities emerge stronger. We aim to use
the Business Tomorrow series to compress in 60 minutes the most relevant information and actionable recommendations on priority topics to
support businesses in their prevention, response and recovery efforts.
It is this degree of high-level engagement and access that gives our
corporate partners a competitive edge.
This pandemic has pushed the world into uncharted territory and has
forced many businesses to reassess almost every aspect of how they work. Our top priority remains the health and safety of our employees and
partners in the countries we operate. We have been fortunate and
uniquely positioned to respond and transition quickly to the nationwide
lockdown, innovating new services and solutions for both our audience
and clients. We are incredibly proud of our team's ability to deliver
and help navigate the impacts of this pandemic. These past few months
have proven that we are making it work from home. It has also allowed us as an organisation to continue to grow in our thinking and manage
technology and innovation for a competitive advantage.
CNBC Africa’s mission is more relevant than ever to continue to monitor
and respond to the ever-changing economic landscape to give our audience the latest breaking business and financial news, online, on-air and on
point.
