Russia’s leading pay-TV operator Tricolor plans to have several million subscribers to its OTT service by the end of this year.
Furthermore, according to Andrei Nesterov, the company’s deputy general director for strategic and operational marketing, quoted by Comnews, it is aiming for the service to be among the top three in Russia in revenue terms in the next one and a half to two years.
Figures revealed by Tricolor at CSTB Telecom and Media 2020 in Moscow this week show that the operator ended 2019 with 12.23 million subscribers, of whom over 10 million received HD, 125,000 Ultra HD and 1.2 million OTT services.
Nesterov also said that Tricolor grew its B2B business by 26% in 2019 thanks largely to satellite internet.
