The multi-sport apps bring about second screen solutions for the TVA Sports channel, with coverage of all the important leagues such as NHL, NFL, MLB and MLS, encompassing stats, news, live streaming and more.

TVA Sports Hockey focuses only on the NHL and features an in-depth stats centre as well as near-live video replays from different angles that helps users enjoy the game to the fullest. Netco Sports also use the company’s Game Connect Solution to create a real-time interaction with users.

Explaining the company’s decision to become an SVG Europe Gold Sponsor, Netco Sports founder and CEO Jean-Sébastien Cruz comments: “With the ambition to bring the revolutions to the world of sport, we have always been looking for a way to advance our service quality and we believe being a sponsor of Sport Video Group Europe and joining Sport Video Group Europe is the answer.

Getting access to a huge knowledge resource and a dedicated communication channel engaging the professionals in the sports industry, especially in the live broadcasting sector, is undoubtedly a great opportunity for us to devour latest technological innovations in sport, achieve valuable experiences from other professionals, and significantly leverage our outcome. We are looking forward to seeing spectacular results from this sponsorship in near future.”
