Vodafone Iceland taps Nordija for TV platform

Vodafone Iceland has tapped Denmark-based middleware provider Nordija to provide technology for the next generation of its TV offering.

Vodafone Iceland will use Nordija’s fokusOn software to power its TV service. Vodafone Netherlands – currently in the process of merging its mobile service with cable operator Ziggo – already uses Nordija’s platform.

“We have high ambitions of providing a leading user experience to our TV customers. After a thorough evaluation process, in tough competition with other leading middleware vendors, we have chosen Nordija as the right partner to help us deliver that vision,” said Stefan Sigurosson CEO of Vodafone Iceland. “The Nordija middleware gives Vodafonea very good foundation for developing our next generation TV experience. It enables us to introduce new and exciting services to our customers, not only for the big screens but also on mobiles and other connected devices.”
