Russia Market Report

Russia’s television industry is certainly the largest and undoubtedly also one of the most dynamic in Central and Eastern Europe. Though dominated by well-established broadcasters such as the First Channel, Rossiya TV, NTV and CTC, it also has three DTH platforms, a cable industry serving some 13.5 million homes and a rapidly expanding IPTV sector. What is more, HDTV and VOD are already a reality, and a plan for the transition to digital broadcasting is in place.

This report, the fourth in the Broadband TV News Briefing, provides a complete overview of the fast-changing Russian TV industry. It will provide an extremely useful reference tool for anyone interested in the market and its prospects for the future.

Author Chris Dziadul is an acknowledged expert on the Central and East European broadcast sector.
