News Summary:
On April 21, 2026, Jason Sive, CEO of Mobicred and RCS eCommerce Executive, reported that South Africa’s online retail market is projected to exceed R150 billion and comprise 12% of total retail turnover by 2027. Earlier that day, Susan Larkin, the new CEO and President of RCS, outlined the company’s strategy for evolving broadcast technology at the 2026 NAB Show, highlighting flexibility and collaboration amidst a market where broadcasters are rethinking workflows and audience engagement. This followed vCreative's April 17 expansion of its Cloud AutoDub integrations to include WideOrbit’s WO Aurora and, soon, RCS’s ZettaCloud, designed to connect production to playout without local server infrastructure and reduce manual audio transfer. RCS Worldwide had previously appointed Larkin as President and CEO on March 24, a move aimed at accelerating its leadership in audio creation tools, media intelligence, music analytics, and television operations technology. Her appointment came after Philippe Generali, the President and CEO of RCS Worldwide, announced his retirement on January 28 to pursue personal interests, concluding his tenure at the broadcast software company.
