Ginx Esports has concluded a wide-ranging deal with Telekom Austria Group which will see Ginx Esports TV not only available across Europe on Eutelsat 16A, but distributed across most of its subsidiaries.

“Telekom Austria Group’s technical services and network will enable us to deliver the best esports content and the most popular tournament action, on TV, to a new audience across Central & Eastern Europe.”

“We are pleased to welcome Ginx Esports TV as a premium partner for both technical broadcast services delivery and content distribution across CEE,” added Nikola Francetic, Head of Group Content, Media and Broadcasting of Telekom Austria Group.

“Telekom Austria Group is constantly looking to deliver new products and services to its millennial audience hungry for new content and exciting live TV experiences. Ginx Esports TV fits into this category perfectly and we are very excited to feature this attractive and popular content”.
