Scant details have been unveiled as yet, but the pay-TV operator and programmer has announced the impending release of its OTT service in Spain, and it has already launched a Spanish-language website and social media profiles on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
In barely 48 hours, the Twitter profile reached 1,100 followers, and many users have asked the company about its plans, revealing a strong interest in the newest kid on the Spanish streaming block.
After almost a year of rumours, Sky confirmed during its Q2 2017 results presentation in July that it intends to launch an OTT platform in Spain as it has done in other European countries. The UK-based operator said it was attracted by the fact that Spain was the Eurozone's fourth largest economy and the market with the largest free-to-air (FTA) headroom in Europe.
Once Sky has completed the launch, Spain will have become one of the most competitive streaming and subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) markets in Europe, something inconceivable two years ago, when even Netflix wasn’t available in the country.
