Vubiquity, TV2U Target Emerging Markets

Multiscreen video specialist Vubiquity has teamed with TV2U Worldwide Pty Ltd to roll out transactional VOD (TVOD) services to under-penetrated markets in Asia and the Middle East.

Under the deal, TV2U will act as Vubiquity’s affiliate in up to seven high-growth markets, including Indonesia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Oman and Kuwait.  Other countries covered by the deal include Australia and the United Kingdom, and others may be added to the list at a later date, the companies said.

Vubiquity will also provide  international programming for these new VOD services along with content processing and ongoing promotional support.

In turn, TV2U will provide its video-distributor clients with a TVOD platform that includes single login for access to films and TV series on devices such as smartphones, tablets, PCs, connected TVs and set-top boxes.
