France Channels - lancement prévu mi 2021 reconfirmé (@ Netgem AG)

France Channels - lancement prévu mi 2021, confirmé au sein de l'Assemblée générale mixte des actionnaires du 26 mai 2021.


=> Reconfirmatión du  lancement France Channels, prévu mi 2021!

=> 2020 : le pivot est réussi!

("La passage à la fibre et la tendance au “cord cutting” (debundling des offres télécoms et TV) offre au Groupe la perspective de plusieurs années de croissance sur la marché Européen avec une distribution combinant direct-to-consumer et partenariat opérateurs.")


"Avec France Channels, avec un lancement prévu mi 2021, le Groupe explore cette opportunité."



Perspectives : 2021 et au-delà

Le marché européen devrait voir s’accentuer dans les prochaines années le phénomène de “cord-cutting".

Avec son produit NetgemTV, le Groupe s’inscrit dans cette évolution : apporter au consommateur un service regroupant l’ensemble de l’offre vidéo sur tous les écrans au sein d’une application unique et pour un abonnement familial à prix serré.

Associé à son produit SuperStream, le Groupe permet ainsi naux opérateurs fibre une réponse à ces nouveaux usages leur permettant de maximiser le retour sur leurs investissement fibre.

Ce modèle économique - appliqué à l’Europe - a démontré sa pertinence aux US.

2021 : On accélère !

Sur l’année 2021, Netgem confirme son ambition d’afficher une croissance de sa marge brute, à un niveau comparable à celui du 1er trimestre 2021, soit de l’ordre de +10%.

Cette croissance se construira sur les 3 marchés France, UK et Finlande, marchés de référence pour Netgem, qui présentent des profils de croissance attractifs sur plusieurs années, et sur lesquels la Société continuera à étudier tout moyen de se renforcer.

A partir de 2022, Netgem estime être en mesure d’accélérer sa croissance en élargissant sa présence sur d’autres marchés. Cette accélération pourra se faire de manière endogène ou par rapprochement, si des opportunités favorables se présentaient.



Calendrier de communication financière:

● Résultats S1 2021 30: juillet 2021, avant bourse
● Chiffre d'affaires et marge brute T3 2021 20: octobre 2021, avant bourse

NEW: BT Sport "timeline feature" comes to NETGEM TV

(25 May 2021)

BT Sport is continuing to give its customers more ways to watch, launching a beta of a new ‘timeline’ feature on its award-winning App for large screens which gives viewers a completely new way to watch live sport on TV. In addition, Netgem’s TV box range has become the latest large screen platform on which the BT Sport app is available.


The broadcaster also announced that the large screen app has been added to Netgem (UK), with both the Netgem HD and 4K TV boxes now offering it to BT Sport app subscribers. Owners of the Netgem soundbox HD sound system can also access the app.


The timeline feature will launch on the App for large screens, in beta form, in time for this week’s UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League finals.

However, you won’t be able to access it in time for those events if you’re using the BTSport App via all platforms/devices, but they plan to move to BT Sport Ultimate streams in 4K HDR in time for next season.
The timeline features will launch on the App for large screens in beta form for this week’s UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League finals, with a view to launching in full next season around events such as the Premier League and UEFA Champions League. While viewers have been able to use a timeline on mobiles and tablets for several seasons as part of the App’s enhanced player, this is the first time that they will be able to enjoy an improved viewing experience on large screens. 

The new features allow customers watching on TV via the App to access an interactive timeline for each match to keep abreast of key moments and incidents. The feature allows them to re-watch key moments and move seamlessly back to the live action

Meanwhile, customers can access the App for large screens on the Netgem 4K and Netgem HD TV boxes, plus Netgem soundbox HD. BT Sport will join an array of HD and 4K content available via the Netgem platform including Freeview Play,  Prime Video, Youtube, and BritBox.

The Netgem launch means BT Sport customers can access the App on a growing number of platforms and devices, following recent launches in the past year on Amazon Fire TV, Roku devices as well as TV sets supporting Android TV joining existing availability on Samsung smart TV, Sony PlayStation, Xbox, Google Chromecast and Apple TV, as well as mobiles and tablets. BT Sport is also available on all major pay TV platforms BT TV, Sky, TalkTalk and Virgin Media. 

Sylvain Thevenot, Chief Commercial & Customer Officer, Netgem Group, said: “Launching BT Sport on our award-winning Netgem TV service completes the range of content already provided to consumers via our distribution operator partners in the UK, and we are pleased to offer fantastic Sport content in stunning 4K quality via the BT Sport App.

Jamie Hindhaugh, chief operating officer, BT Sport, said: “BT Sport is proud to have continually broken new ground in how fans can watch live sport in recent years and today’s launches are the first to come from BT Sport Innovates, our new home of innovation. We’re excited that fans can sample the timeline, a new way of viewing sport on TV, ahead of its launch next season. And in joining Netgem’s platform we’re continuing to make it even easier for fans to follow the sport they love.” For more information on BT Sport’s innovation visit bt.com/sport/innovates. 

So, next season, is expected that timeline feature will be available in 4K HDR Netgem devices also next season!
