OSN signs Middle East’s first deal with Netflix

February 18, 2018 10.46 Europe/London By Robert Briel

OSN, the Middle East and North Africa region’s entertainment network, has signed the first partnership deal in the region with Netflix.

OSN customers will be able to access Netflix’s content library via a new OSN Box that will be launched towards the end of the second quarter. Plus, customers will also be able to pay for their Netflix subscription via one consolidated OSN bill.

“The future of the entertainment industry in the MENA region will be shaped by providers who offer value and choice at every turn, and through this groundbreaking partnership with Netflix, we are demonstrating our customer-centric focus on delivering convenience and flexibility for all,” according to Martin Stewart, CEO, OSN.

Neil Martin, CCO of OSN added: “The breadth of OSN’s programming portfolio in the region is unbeatable and cemented by long-term partnerships with major international studios such as Disney, HBO, NBC Universal, Fox, and Sony to name a few. Now with the addition of Netflix, OSN continues to ensure entertainment lovers in the region have more choice and easy access to a stellar line-up of unique content via one interface.”

“With this regional partnership and thanks to hundreds of Netflix’s original titles slated for 2018, OSN’s customers will be able to seamlessly access and enjoy all the best entertainment in one place,” added Maria Ferreras, VP Business Development for EMEA at Netflix.
