Arqiva homes in on Overseas Property

Arqiva’s Satellite Media Solutions division has secured a contract with MacAnthony Realty International to launch its channel, Overseas Property TV, onto the Sky platform.
Under the terms of the five year contract Arqiva will provide fibre connectivity between the channel’s London studio and Arqiva’s site, and uplink Overseas Property TV onto the Sky platform via the Eurobird satellite.
“As new entrants to TV broadcasting, we needed a playout and distribution solution that included a comprehensive introduction to the broadcast television market”, commented Wendy MacAnthony, MD of the Overseas Property TV. Arqiva demonstrated a real understanding of our wider commercial needs and guided us through the process of launching our channel, meaning that we could concentrate on what we do best - selling property around the world.”
John Bozza, Head of Broadcast Sales at Arqiva’s Satellite Media Solutions division, added: “We’re committed to making the process of launching a channel as simple and transparent as possible for new entrants. We worked closely with Overseas Property TV, drawing on our years of broadcast experience, to make the process as painless as possible. We not only provided a tailored technical solution, but also the consultative and sales support that Overseas Property TV needed to launch its first channel.”
Overseas Property TV is the flagship channel of MacAnthony Realty International Ltd, showcasing the company’s range of real estate across the USA, France, Spain, Portugal, Bulgaria, Dominican Republic, Bahamas and Turkey.
