_wige GROUP develops new Sport-Total.tv business area
- Fully automatic broadcasting of sports events also for the amateur area
- _wige MEDIA AG arranges exclusive partnership with system supplier
Pixellot
- Test phase to start in coming months
Cologne/Tel Aviv, 21 October 2016. As announced, _wige MEDIA AG is further
developing its new business area Sport-Total.tv, and will launch the test
phase for this strategic growth area over the coming months. _wige MEDIA AG
plans to equip German amateur associations with special video technology
that enables them to broadcast games and sports events at high quality and
fully automatically on various platforms. To this end, _wige MEDIA AG has
signed an exclusive agreement with system manufacturer Pixellot, Tel Aviv,
enabling it to exclusively market the innovative system in the amateur
sector from 2017 until the end of 2019 in Germany. This agreement can be
extended for two more years. "With it we aim to also facilitate the type of
high-quality, efficient and cost-effective production in amateur sports
that fans are already familiar with from professional leagues, while at the
same time we are combining this idea with significantly more options for
fans, which allow them to follow sports events on a far more individual and
flexible basis than in conventional linear TV," emphasises Peter
Lauterbach, CEO of _wige MEDIA AG. Alon Werber, CEO of Pixellot
underscores: "We are pleased that we have found an ideal partner for our
system in _wige MEDIA."
