Secuoya awarded host broadcast rights for FIS events

Spanish media company Secuoya has been awarded the host broadcast rights for the International Ski Federation’s (Fis) 2016 Freestyle Aerials and 2017 Freestyle Snowboard World Cup events.

Fis selected Secuoya ahead of rival bids from the Mediapro agency and the Videe, ISB and VAV media companies.

Secuoya will produce the international signal for both events, which will be hosted in the Sierra Nevada region of Spain.

Secuoya will also broadcast coverage of the events via a new free-to-air channel that the company plans to launch next year. Secuoya applied for a new DTT licence in Spain earlier this year.
