March 26, 2024

FIS has teamed up with Endeavor Streaming to deliver its global integrated streaming solution, FIS TV, and help its member associations, athletes, organizers and commercial partners to reach winter sport fans worldwide.

Since launching in August 2023, FIS TV has streamed over 38,000 hours of content for free to winter sport fans, including bringing FIS World Cup competitions to new markets which don’t have an existing broadcast partner and delivering FIS Junior World Ski Championships to global audiences. The service will launch across Apple TV and Android TV devices ahead of the Audi FIS Alpine World Cup Finals in Saalbach (AUT) to provide a seamless big-screen viewing experience to fans.

Additionally, FIS TV offers a diverse content catalogue of competition highlights, winning runs and jumps, as well as the original series “This is #FIS100 – Stories from the love of snow sports”. FIS TV is also designed to provide additional services and support for FIS’ 140 member associations.

FIS TV is powered by Endeavor Streaming’s Vesper platform, a complete end-to-end streaming solution that enables clubs and rightsholders to build upon and deliver memorable direct-to-consumer streaming experiences for their fans. FIS TV is available for free on the web at watch.fis-ski.com, and via the FIS app on Android and iOS mobile devices, as well as Apple TV and Android TV devices.

The launch leverages Endeavor Streaming’s experience in delivering innovative direct-to-consumer streaming offerings for some of the world’s biggest sporting clubs and leagues, including EuroLeague, WNBA, Tottenham Hotspur FC, World Rugby, Union of European Football Association (UEFA), and the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL).
