Telecom Italia announced that it plans to accelerate the quadruple play strategy by entering into production of premium content for ultra-broadband and to spin-off the activities of TIMvision.
Last year, the Operator introduced the country’s first quadplay offering, by partnering with Sky to deliver TV content, internet, mobile and landline services. With TIMvision, TIM provides an on-demand TV that combines the best of entertainment, offering the widest range of premium content distribution platform.
The new company’s mission will be to present a video offer enriched with original premium content produced and co-produced both nationally and internationally.
The strategy outlined by Chief Executive Officer Flavio Cattaneo to the Board of Directors identifies TIMvision as the tool to provide TIM with exclusive content in ultra-broadband that will support the uptake of fibre consumption by enlarging the offering of IPTV products and services.
The Operator in a statement said that further details on the development of the business will be outlined as part of the 2017-2019 Strategic Plan, which will be unveiled in February 2017.
