Tivify services, including Maghrheb TV+ are available everywhere, on all devices and with no commitment.

“Maghreb TV+ is an offer designed to answer the Arabic community’s expectations in Spain. This TV segment in Spain was not addressed, whereas the Arabic community established in Spain reaches more than 2,5M people. We are delighted of this partnership with Tivify which is the right partner to launch the first Arabic TV offer on the Spanish market”, said Timothée Vidal, SVP multicultural distribution and digital at Thema.

“At Tivify we are very clear about our mission to provide the different communities living in Spain with content that is relevant to them. With the incorporation of Maghreb TV+, we are responding to the Maghreb community, bringing them a high-quality service with advanced functionalities, so they can access their favorite content like never before. Thema, with its knowledge, experience and leadership in the French market, has been the ideal partner for this launch”, said Rubèn Miró, TV Product Director at Tivify.
