Digital sport market leader deltatre have struck a deal with top live video production technology provider EVS for the joint delivery of the 2015/2016 UEFA Champions League season. The announcement follows a multi-year collaboration between the two companies, which have been developing digital and broadcast services for major sport events' coverage since 2007.

Carlo De Marchis, CPO at deltatre, said: We are delighted to continue working with EVS and to keep fostering innovation in digital sports. This partnership is firmly in line with deltatre's position of innovative integrator.

Under the deal, EVS' C-Cast cloud-based multimedia solution and XT3 video servers will combine with deltatre's Diva and Magma products, providing clients with high-value solutions that boast a smooth integration among different technologies.
