Overview

Eurosport, Europe's leading sports video content provider, approached us to develop their Connected TVs multiplayer service, pioneering the multi-device revolution in 2012.

Our pitch for the project so impressed them and outstripped the original scope, that we developed an advanced system to connect not just TVs, but all screen-based experiences: TVs across Panasonic, LG and Samsung, Xbox 360, iOS and Android phone & tablet, Windows 8 PC/tablet, Windows phone and the desktop website.
