We have built Viaplay into the number one Nordic streaming service in our current markets, and we see a wider appetite for our unique combination of originals, international films and series, kids content and live sports. At the same time, our new organizational model will enable us to expand faster and more efficiently. Our cutting-edge technology is built to scale in a very cost-effective way, and Iceland\u2019s technology leadership, thriving creative scene and highly connected society make it an ideal setting for Viaplay, which will now be available in every Nordic country.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nordic Entertainment Group (NENT Group) is gearing up to launch its Viaplay streaming service in Iceland in the first half of 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":9568,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[1751,1551,314],"class_list":["post-9567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-nent-group","tag-nordic-entertainment-group","tag-viaplay"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
