The two new partners will acquire exclusive audiovisual rights from Helbiz Media to broadcast in Australia, New Zealand, and Africa, all BKT Series matches in full HD, both live and replays, as well as highlights for the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 seasons.

This continues Helbiz Media's international distribution of the BKT Series, which already includes agreements with several broadcasters and platforms in the U.S., Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Balkans, Greece, Spain, Latin America, Indonesia, Israel, Romania, Poland, and Brazil.

"A statistic established that there are 300,000 people who speak our language in these territories. The figure motivated us, as Lega B, to strongly pursue an agreement that would allow us to be close to them, to the many fans of our teams and to build Italian soccer’s presence in these countries. In addition, we will also be present in Africa, a continent that in terms of age and growing interest in soccer represents a fundamental basin for the growth of Serie BKT,” said Mauro Balata, President of the BKT Series.
