MUMBAI: Digital technology and media group Falcon Media House has signed a landmark deal with Mumbai-based cable network provider JPR Network. The company has agreed to provide live and on-demand digital streaming technology to the latter.

"We're looking forward to delivering the first of many such systems as OTT platforms represent the future of broadcasting," Falcon’s executive chairman Gert Rieder said.

"Local networks and mobile services in India, Africa and Southeast Asia are not always reliable enough to provide high-quality streaming experiences, which is where the Quiptel technology makes a big difference," he added.

After inking deals in Nigeria, South Africa, Canada and Mongolia, Falcon has entered India through the new pact. JPR reaps advantage from a partnership in which Falcon provides subsidiary Quiptel’s patented Q-Flow open internet streaming technology.
