Director of content and programming William Linders decided to leave VodafoneZiggo as per May 1.
Linders looks back positively on his time at VodafoneZiggo: “The past five years have brought a lot of beauty. We made long-term agreements with all content parties to be the first in the Dutch market to launch Replay TV and the Ziggo Go app. But we also gave the go-ahead for a sports channel: Ziggo Sport. We brought all HBO content exclusively to VodafoneZiggo as part of the repositioning of the SVOD service Ziggo Movies & Series. VodafoneZiggo has become a player in the entertainment market from a traditional cable company and I am proud of that.”
Linders chooses to focus his energy in the coming period on a number of start ups he has committed himself to in recent years.
