For now, TV Data will move forward as its own brand in order to continue providing existing service for their customers. The team and their flexible set-up will not be modified; the company will continue to operate entirely independently under leadership of CEO Jacques Dutron.
"I am extremely pleased with this deal," says Dirk Theunis, CEO of Videohouse. "TV Data adds value to our position in the Live Graphics market, where our BOOST division is also active. With this acquisition, we will meet demands for more technology, innovation and know-how from television broadcasters and production houses."
"We were looking for more structure and growth," Jacques Dutron of TV Data says, "This will now happen as part of Videohouse and the Euro Media Group."
This acquisition fits in with Euro Media Group's strategy to commit fully to offering graphic and digital applications in Europe. The previous acquisitions of Netco in France (creating mobile solutions for the world of sports and OTT) and EBP in Italy (providing Graphics and Statistics for among others: Serie A, football and the Giro, cycling) confirm this strategic commitment.
