OTTera to Distribute ducktv Globally

OTT/fast-channel service OTTera has partnered with Slovakia-based ducktv to distribute the children’s early learning channel worldwide.

ducktv’s educational programming serves babies and toddlers and features animated and live-action content. The stories of the flagship series, Ducky Adventures, are created with the support of child psychologists.

OTTera will power and provide advertising for ducktv in its further linear launches, making the FAST channel available for distribution on additional platforms worldwide, excluding North America.

“ducktv’s channel provides high-quality edutainment for kids, perfect for a co-viewing experience, and welcomed by platforms globally,” said Stephen L. Hodge, chairman and CEO of OTTera. “We are thrilled to have been chosen by them to be their partner to expand their efforts in this space.”

Iza Piotrowska, director of affiliate sales and business development at ducktv, said, “Teaming up with OTTera has strategic importance to us while we are growing ducktv’s FAST footprint and distribution as we are already seeing a lot of traction and success in the channel’s viewership on connected TVs.”

“OTTera is a valuable partner whose expertise in the FAST ecosystem and strong track record will surely help grow our business and unlock new opportunities for digital advertising revenue streams,” Piotrowska continued.
