I caught up with Stuart Collingwood, the VP of Sling Media overseeing EMEA, to ask him about how the acquisition might impact Sling’s business in Europe. Sling has been steadily building up a presence in the UK and the Continent, signing a European-wide deal with mobile operator Three as well distribution deals with pay-TV providers ViaSat in Scandinavia and, earlier this month, UPC in The Netherlands. Recently the ViaSat deal extended also to the operator’s footprint in the Baltic region. More on paidContentUK site here.
