PARTNERS BACKING

FLOW STANDS WITH UWITV

Flow, the leading telecommunications and entertainment provider in the Caribbean and Latin America deepened its partnership with The UWI and UWItv through an extension of a landmark industry-academic agreement which springboarded UWItv’s evolution as a multi-dimensional and modern media service on Flow EVO channels. The partnership has enabled UWItv to successfully operate a dedicated cable channel — the only Caribbean education channel of its kind — broadcasted to 16 territories, bringing uniquely diverse UWI and Caribbean-focused programming to millions of viewers. The agreement will help The UWI to expand Phase II of the Triple A Strategy through the delivery of public education services. Flow has exclusive television broadcast rights for the 24/7 high-definition linear channel and all its programming. This means that UWItv will continue to be available to customers who have Flow’s cable and IPTV service, as well as online.
