Bloomberg anchor Jennifer Zabasajja will also anchor the team from the region and become a local correspondent across all Bloomberg’s platforms.
Stephen Colvin, Chief Commercial Officer, Bloomberg Media: “We’re excited to be expanding our reach to important business and finance audiences in Africa through investing in programming and operations in the region.”
Clare Akamanzi, the Chief Executive Officer at the Rwanda Development Board said: “We are delighted to welcome Bloomberg TV in the East and Central African region with a studio in Rwanda’s capital Kigali. This will enhance coverage of the many exciting developments and business stories in this region of interest to African and global audiences.”
