Dragan Solak will head the new company
Mid Europa has completed the acquisition of a 100% stake in UPC Slovenia from Liberty Global.
Significantly, the operator will now be headed up by Dragan Solak, the head of Serbia Broadband (SBB), which was itself acquired by Mid Europa in 2007.
He said that SBB and UPC Slovenia are “complementary platforms that are leaders in their respective markets.”
SBB also operates the DTH platform TotalTV, and as a result the acquisition of UPC Slovenia makes Mid Europa one of the leading operators of pay-TV services in the former Yugoslavia region.
