As a previous supplier of satellite news-gathering facilities (SNG), Inmedia has strengthened its relationship with the ITF through the signing of this new two-year deal.
It will provide uplinking and satellite space segment, plus turnaround connections to other satellites where required. In addition to the live tennis, Inmedia will also be providing global distribution for the official highlights programme, a summary of all the World Group ties, available on the Monday after each round.
The ITF, as organiser of both events, selects one World Group tie per round as the most interesting and potentially exciting for television audiences, organising the distribution of the live tennis among its broadcasting partners around the world.
The 2004 Fed Cup Final was shown live by 15 broadcasters while the Davis Cup Final reached 124 countries live in all five continents.
