On the press-breakfast Onno Zonneweld, Head of SES ASTRA AB in Ukraine and CIS counties, presented SES capabilities and SES Video growth:
“SES offers a range of features to deliver high-quality video anywhere, anytime and on any screen which makes it a highly attractive platform for reliable and cost-effective video delivery to large audiences. These qualities make it ideal for distributing HD and UHD programming, and SES is today delivering nearly 2,800 HD TV channels and over 40 commercial UHD TV channels – more than any other satellite service provider”.
