Amsterdam, 22 June 2006 – chellomedia Interactive Services has launched a new interactive TV portal in the Netherlands on Sport1. Digital premium channel Sport1 now offers its subscribers on the UPC cable platform (UPC Digital TV) the option to switch between four Sport1 channels presented on one TV screen. While watching a match, viewers are able to call up extra information such as match results, current scores, player statistics, an interactive quiz and a dedicated World Cup section.

The launch of the interactive portal fits in with chellomedia’s strategy to offer new digital services to cable network operators in Europe as well as to broadcasters and other platform owners. Noel Leslie, EVP of chellomedia Interactive Services adds: “We are developing these kind of interactive solutions for operators and broadcasters in order to help them increase and retain channel audiences and to create opportunities for new revenue streams. These converged TV and internet solutions give viewers more and more control: they have more to choose from, can access content on-demand, and even participate in programmes.”

Sport1 General Manager Jeroen Oerlemans: “The launch of our Sport1 TV portal will provide great added value to our premium sports channel in the Netherlands. With this easily accessible interactivity and the possibility to view a mosaic with multiple live channels the viewer becomes more powerful and gets more choices. We think this portal will fulfil a great need.”

chellomedia develops and facilitates these services using its authoring and deployment solution chello mistral. chello mistral enables quick and simple development by members of a creative team across multiple platforms and middlewares. It is also accredited by BSkyB to deliver interactive advertising, for which chellomedia has partnerships with leading UK broadcasters and
