Hopster Heads to Sky NZ’s Streaming Services

The educational and entertainment-based digital platform Hopster has secured a partnership with Sky New Zealand.

Hopster will be launching in November through Sky New Zealand’s entertainment streaming services NEON and Sky Go. Subscribers can access hundreds of Hopster’s educational preschool shows, video books and music videos that are built around an international early-years curriculum.

Shows on the roster include Molang and Hopster Studios animated originals such as the science-based show Clever Brenda, fast-paced Grimm’s Fairy Tales series Two Minute Tales and empathy-focused show Saturday Club.

Nick Walters, founder and CEO at Hopster, said: “We couldn’t be more pleased to be launching with Sky in New Zealand. It’s been a long-held ambition of ours to build our distribution in the region—and with Sky New Zealand we’ve found the perfect partner. We can’t wait to get Hopster’s unique content and award-winning mobile app into the hands of Kiwis—and to start developing the service with local content to offer an even richer experience. This could be the start of something big.”
