CAPITAL MAHARAJA BREAKS INTO IPTV
16-01-2007

Colombo based RaiderTech, the e-commerce and Internet arm of the Capital Maharaja Organization, has facilitated Sri Lanka’s very first step into IPTV, by aligning the Group’s TV Channels (MTV Channels Pvt. Ltd) into a strategic partnership with the Tokyo based New Media Group.


RaiderTech has also notched up several lucrative IPTV deals with leading global telcos including France Telecom, to provide Sri Lankan television content across regions such as North America and Europe.

The landmark deal was signed in Colombo, in what the Group feels is the direction and future of media. The partnership will see MTV’s locally produced programs in Sinhala, Tamil and English being offered on an Asian bouquet to the Sino-Japanese region including the Koreas.

The advent into IPTV has meant an aggressive upgrade to the TV companies’ broadcast facilities and the deployment of a complex mechanism to transmit TV software across the Internet in order to enable the pure-play feature. This was a particularly daunting task, considering Sri Lanka’s broadband infrastructure.

Group Director Mano Wikramanayake explained that during the initial deployment, NMG demonstrated their extensive IPTV know-how. “We were impressed by the quality of the solution and the superior level of service and therefore decided to select the NMG integrated solution for the full-scale commercial launch. We are confident that this productive relationship with the high level of commitment from NMG will continue into the future with our plans for further growth of our IPTV services in strategic locations through multiple telecom partner relationships.”

Former Wall Street investment banker and present NMG CEO Randy McGraw added, “We are delighted with the launch of our partnership with Raidertech and look forward to a long-term collaboration with our eminent technology partners in driving the large scale deployment of IPTV across the world”.

RaiderTech combines high quality products with world-class services, providing a carrier-grade IPTV solution through its strategic partnerships, required for the expansion of triple play services in high growth potential markets.
