New distribution partnership signed to bring Dazn’s rich live and on-demand sports offer to an ever-widening pool of fans thanks to the Tivùsat satellite
– Milan
Dazn continues to invest to further increase the quality of broadcasting on the Italian territory and to offer its subscribers an ever-improving experience. The streaming platform, which began broadcasting Serie A in 2021 and which is in private negotiation with the League to purchase the rights for the five-year period 2024-29 as well, has recently launched the Italian Network Operation Center and continues to enhance the infrastructure Dazn Edge. The objective is twofold: to increase the traffic that will pass on the caches owned by Dazn and to intervene in terms of capillarity on the territory, as in Sardinia with Cagliari which has returned to Serie A.
