Altibox
Altibox is an IPTV Fibre to the home platform with 600,000 subscribers in Norway and Denmark.
Project Outcome
Advice and Goal
TVTomorrow negotiated Distribution Agreements for HBO Nordic to launch on the Altibox platform in July 2017, and for Amazon Prime Video on a revenue share basis to launch as an app integration on the Altibox Set-top-Box in October 2020, making Altibox the first platform in Norway to launch Amazon Prime.
Results
HBO achieved a 25% penetration on the Altibox platform, which is the highest in Europe. The partnership was so successful that the HBO renewal was renegotiated with WarnerMedia in 2019, achieving further cost efficiencies across the whole WarnerMedia portfolio also including Turner Channels.
“I had the pleasure of working with Tim and TVTomorrow for a period of 6 years. Tim is a senior content expert professional with the stamina and network it takes to close content deals. He has a broad international network within the content industry including the Hollywood studios and streaming companies such as HBO, Netflix and Amazon. Tim was instrumental in securing content rights for our new advanced TV- and entertainment platform with services including channels carriage, SVOD branded services, VOD and EST. Tim also helped us providing legal frameworks and strategic advice to enable us to close deals. On a more personal note I consider Tim to have high integrity, professionalism and discipline. He also has a friendly nature that makes him very likeable. I have had great pleasure working with Tim and give him my highest recommendations.”
