M7 and Deutsche Glasfaser extend partnership

March 21, 2019 09.00 Europe/London By Jörn Krieger

M7 and Deutsche Glasfaser strengthen their content partnership with a new multi-year agreement.

The largest FTTH provider in Germany can thus continue to access around 80 German and international TV channels from the M7 portfolio Pay-TV, Basis HD and International TV. Deutsche Glasfaser links M7’s TV rights portfolio with its in-house developed IPTV technology platform for end customers.

“Deutsche Glasfaser is seen as the driver of the future technology fibre optics with outstanding customer orientation and is planning investments of €1.5 billion in the next years to connect one million households to its network across Germany,” said Christian Heinkele, managing director of Eviso Germany, the M7 business partner for marketing and channel management in Germany.

“We are therefore pleased about the extension of the cooperation and the opportunity to continue accompanying Deutsche Glasfaser on its successful journey by supplying the rights for excellent premium TV channels and providing our full support,” added Heinkele.

Uwe Nickl, managing director of Deutsche Glasfaser, said: “As the market leader, our mission is to provide our customers with the best service and entertainment on our FTTH networks. M7 has long been a reliable partner for high-quality TV content and rights. Both companies are regarded as innovation drivers in their respective markets and the bundling of our strengths primarily serves our customers. The decision to continue the cooperation was therefore a logical step for us.”
