| Eurovision is committed to bringing a comprehensive
Olympic TV, radio and multimedia coverage of the Games to the largest
possible audience in the Eurovision territory. For the Winter Olympic
Games 2006 in Turin, more than 500 transmissions were booked and over
800 hours of Olympic coverage was offered on its worldwide satellite
and fibre networks.
Eurovision broadcasters and sublicensees also provided live and
deferred moving images of the Games over a number of new media distribution
platforms - broadband Internet, IPTV and mobile devices, in addition
to the more than 7,800 hours of TV coverage scheduled across the
Eurovision territories.
Through this wide range of sublicensing and cooperation agreements,
the EBU provides state-of-the art services to the widest possible
audience, complementing extensive TV coverage together with access
over new media platforms.
Additionally, throughout the Games, Eurovision provides production
and transmissions services to both rights-holders and non-rights
holders through its setup at the International Broadcast Centre
and the Eurovision News and Network production services.
The European Broadcasting Union remains the Olympic Torch bearer
for European broadcasting and is proud to be the European rights-holder
for the 2008 Beijing, 2010 Vancouver and 2012 London Olympic Games.
Already, Eurovision teams are making plans to ensure that broadcasters
will receive the quality production and transmission services for
these Games.
