At the NAB Show in Las Vegas in early April, France Télévisions was awarded the Project of the Year prize for its france.tv Paris 2024 system. The event channel provided live coverage of the Olympic flame's journey from May 7 to July 28.

    The NAB show is the world's largest trade fair for audiovisual technologies. Every year, industry professionals gather in Las Vegas to imagine what audiovisual programs will look like, how they will be consumed and on what media. Trophies are awarded for the most innovative projects.

    Against this backdrop, France Télévisions was awarded the Project of the Year prize in the acquisition category for its system for producing and broadcasting live programs on france.tv Paris 2024. The event channel created for the JOP Parfis 2024 enabled the public to follow the Olympic flame live along the 1,625 km route. The program was available on the france.tv app, connected TVs, ISPs and platforms hosting france.tv.

    France Télévisions implemented a new manufacturing and broadcasting technique, based on the Cloud, 5G and Starlink with its partner TVU Networks. This method has also considerably reduced environmental impact, with a saving of 600 tonnes of CO2 for 69 days of production compared with conventional means.
