Sony has entered into a strategic partnership with the Polish public broadcaster TVP in order to develop HbbTV services in the country.
Under the terms of the agreement between the two parties, they will jointly develop content and hybrid TV services, as well as educate consumers about such services.
TVP has pioneered the introduction of HbbTV into Poland, launching a service in time for Euro 2012 this summer.
