Success Story

FIFA

The Objective

Alongside the FIFA production team from Zurich as well as the FIFA team, APO Group led a team on- ground of producers video crews, field reporters and executives, to cover the two events in Kinshasha, the capital city of the Democratic Republic of Congo and Senegal.

The Strategy

The implemented strategy included text, photos' and videos.

 

Editorial content was crafted to furnish media outlets with timely updates and game results from Kinshasa. African journalists within our network received and accurately published this content alongside accompanying photos.
