Polish media groups team up for new sports venture

Polish pay-television operator NC Plus has joined forces with media company Grupa Onet-RAS Polska to launch a new digital sports platform.

The canalplussport.onet.pl platform will offer video content from the portfolios of NC Plus and Grupa Onet-RAS Polska.

Lukasz Widulinksi, editor in chief of Grupa Onet-RAS Polska’s sport services, said: “The NC Plus platform is a natural partner for us as we already realise projects together. Thanks to this cooperation, we are expanding our offer with further competitions such as the (Uefa) Champions League, the Europa League… as well as top-level publicity material. 

“Our proposal for users is complete in terms of sports rights, as we work with the largest broadcasters in the Polish market. Grupa Onet-RAS Polska is today the only entity to have such a wide range of offerings.”
