Viasat (Nordic television service)

Viasat is a Nordic media and telecommunications group operating primarily in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. It is best known for its satellite television services, offering a wide range of channels and on-demand content.

Viasat's television offering includes both linear channels broadcast via satellite and streaming services available online. These services cover a variety of genres, including sports, movies, series, news, and documentaries. Popular sports offerings often include exclusive rights to major events like UEFA Champions League and Premier League football in the Nordic region.

Beyond satellite television, Viasat has also been involved in broadband internet and telephony services, though the extent of these offerings may vary by country. The company has undergone several restructuring and rebranding efforts over the years, leading to changes in its specific services and target markets within the Nordic region. Viasat's content is often available through its own platforms and through partnerships with other telecommunications and media providers. The brand's ownership has also evolved, becoming part of the Allente group, a joint venture between Viasat and Telenor.
