IPTC member France Télévisions has started signing its daily news broadcasts using C2PA and FranceTV’s C2PA certificate, which is on the IPTC Origin Verified News Publisher List.

This makes France TV is the first news provider in the world to routinely sign its daily news output with a C2PA certificate.

The work won FranceTV the EBU Technology Award from the European Broadcasting Union (who are, incidentally, also IPTC members!)

The mid-day and evening news bulletins have been signed every day since the project launched in September 2025. The video files are signed using FranceTV’s C2PA certificate and can be viewed at a special page on the FranceTV website.

The IPTC would like to pass our congratulations to France Télévisions for reaching this milestone. We look forward to seeing many other publishers and broadcasters start signing their content on a regular basis.
