Italy’s Communications Authority, AgCom, has given the go-ahead for the launch of a tender to award additional capacity on the country’s existing DTT multiplexes.
The tender was officially launched following the approval of the financial conditions for 40 per cent of the transmission capacity of the digital multiplexes owned by national broadcasters RAI, RTI (Mediaset) and Telecom Italia Media to be released. Interested companies will have 60 days, from the date of the publication of the tender rules on the AgCom site and in the Official Gazette, to present their bids. The tender process should be concluded during this summer.
