FilmBox is included in operators\u2019 basic packages and aims to target a different window and audience than our premium film service portfolio. FilmBox will have a different positioning in Western Europe compared to Central Eastern Europe and it will serve as a complementary gateway service to our premium Film1 portfolio. We are delighted to spearhead FilmBox\u2019s expansion in the Netherlands with our long-standing partners at the M7 Group who share our passionate commitment to making top-quality content more affordable and easier to access.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Christiaan Puper, country manager at Canal Digitaal, said: \u201cWe are extremely happy that we can offer FilmBox to our customers. There is an insatiable hunger for interesting content at the moment. Recently we have expanded our on-demand offer with content from our parent company Canal+ and other valuable parties. The addition of FilmBox as a fixed channel is a great next step. With our distinctive services, we think we are a rich addition to the established market.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SPI International is set to launch its flagship FilmBox brand in the Netherlands with the M7 Group via its Dutch pay-TV brand Canal Digitaal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":10956,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[2650,138,847,139],"class_list":["post-10955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-canal-digitaal","tag-filmbox","tag-m7-group","tag-spi-international"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>FilmBox Debuting in the Netherlands on Canal Digitaal - TVEUROPE<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"FilmBox Debuting in the Netherlands on Canal Digitaal - TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"SPI International is set to launch its flagship FilmBox brand in the Netherlands with the M7 Group via its Dutch pay-TV brand Canal Digitaal.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVEUROPE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-05-03T15:00:56+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-05-03T15:08:44+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/07\/filmbox-0521.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"645\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"430\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/\",\"name\":\"FilmBox Debuting in the Netherlands on Canal Digitaal - TVEUROPE\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2021-05-03T15:00:56+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-05-03T15:08:44+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/2021\/05\/03\/filmbox-debuting-in-the-netherlands-on-canal-digitaal\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"FilmBox Debuting in the Netherlands on Canal Digitaal\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/\",\"name\":\"TVEUROPE\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tveurope\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
