24i renews Swiss partnership with TV Factory

24i and TV Factory AG have expanded their partnership in Switzerland, with TV Factory becoming 24i’s exclusive value added reseller in the market. The deal is meant to help Swiss operators and ISPs launch and run TV and streaming services with less complexity and lower cost.

Why it matters: - The expanded deal gives Swiss network operators, ISPs and utilities a local path to 24i’s TV-as-a-Service platform. - The arrangement is designed to reduce the cost and complexity of building proprietary TV platforms. - The partnership could help operators launch branded TV services while keeping their own customer relationships.

What happened: - 24i and TV Factory AG announced a multi-year renewal and expansion of their strategic partnership. - TV Factory became 24i’s exclusive value added reseller for Switzerland. - TV Factory will handle marketing, integration and local support for 24i solutions in Switzerland. - The companies said the partnership combines TV Factory’s local infrastructure and service aggregation with 24i’s platform. - The joint offer is aimed at Swiss network operators, internet service providers and utilities.

The details: - 24i’s Video Cloud combines content, audience intelligence and monetization in one modular platform. - The platform includes content management, personalization, advanced advertising, applications and video workflows. - 24i said the platform is built to help providers launch and scale services, improve content discovery and grow revenue per viewer across Smart TVs, web, mobile devices and operator-grade set-top boxes. - As the exclusive VAR in Switzerland, TV Factory is the local point of contact for providers that want to use 24i solutions or integrate them into existing TV offerings. - TV Factory said customers can source the full service chain from one provider, including signal processing, TV backend, applications, devices, integration, operations and support. - TV Factory is based in Zurich. - TV Factory provides TV-as-a-Service for network operators and internet service providers in Switzerland. - TV Factory’s portfolio includes signal processing and distribution, TV backend, content delivery, applications and devices.

Between the lines: - The renewal signals that both companies see demand for outsourced TV platforms in Switzerland. - The exclusive reseller setup suggests 24i wants a stronger local route to market rather than a direct-only model. - The partnership also positions TV Factory as a single provider for operators that want local support with international technology.

What's next: - TV Factory and 24i will jointly present the partnership and current solutions at SUISSEDIGITAL DAY 2026. - The event is scheduled for 19 November 2026 at Kursaal Bern. - Interested operators and service providers can arrange meetings with TV Factory or 24i’s sales team. - The companies said operators can use the platform for live TV, restart, catch-up and recording, along with programme guides, content delivery, protection, applications and device support. - Features, supported devices and modules will depend on each operator’s deployment.

The bottom line: - 24i is leaning more heavily on TV Factory to grow in Switzerland, while giving local operators a packaged way to modernize TV services without building their own platform from scratch.
