Telekom Srbija and SES partner on new channel distribution deal

Telekom Srbija has agreed a new deal with SES to distribute a new TV bouquet to cable and IPTV networks across Europe – with a focus on Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Slovenia, Macedonia and Montenegro.

The new multi-year agreement will see Telekom Srbija lease satellite capacity on Astra 3B and make its new TV package available across Europe via the orbital position 23.5 degrees East.

The new channel bouquet initially comprises seven TV channels including Agro TV, Film Klub, Kitchen TV, Star TV and Zenska TV. Three additional channels will be added by this summer.

“This is a significant step for us as we are now delivering our local and regional content to Europe via our partners’ networks,” said Marijana Vukasinovic, head of content management at Telekom Srbija.

“This TV package will offer a variety of Serbian and regional TV programmes to viewers across Europe. We have worked with SES on many different projects over the years, and we could not think of a better partner to rely on.”
