COLOGNE: Establishing a fourth sales office, ohm:tv has set up a post in Cape Town, South Africa.

The new sales office will focus on Sub Sahara, with specific emphasis on distribution and acquisitions on the South African market. The South African office will distribution ohm:tv’s portfolio to channels across the continent, while maintaining the company’s existing cooperation and collaboration with Endemol South Africa for mobile and online content.
 
Heading up the new Cape Town office is Jani Le Roux, who comes from the company’s Barcelona post.
 
Hans Spielthenner, CEO and co-founder of ohm:tv, commented, “The African TV landscape is changing drastically with new platforms launching across the continent and with South Africa being at the heart and driving force behind these developments. It is the ideal place to open an office. Based on our successful launch of mobile products and our programming library, we are now ready to build our catalogues for this region. During MIPTV we will be looking for new products and partners that are interested in working with our local sales teams.”
