SES expands Telekom Srbija partnership

September 11, 2025

SES has announced the expansion of its partnership with Telekom Srbija, adding two additional transponders and extending its capacity agreements through 2032. Telekom Srbija will use the added capacity to consolidate its m:Sat TV platform at the 23.5 degrees East orbital position to grow its DTH base across Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and North Macedonia. The two companies first joined forces in 2011, with expanded renewals in 2020 and 2024.

Under the new agreement, SES will continue to provide capacity on multiple transponders to support  lineup of SD and HD channels throughout the region, alongside uplink and backup services and redundant fibre connectivity for the platform.

“The continued expansion of our partnership with SES strengthens our ability to deliver premium television experiences to households across the region,” said Vladimir Lucic, CEO at Telekom Srbija. “With the additional capacity and SES’s proven service reliability, we can scale our DTH offering with confidence and meet the rising demand for high-quality entertainment.”

“Telekom Srbija has been a valued partner for well over a decade, and this long-term extension underscores our shared commitment to bringing high-quality video to viewers across the Western Balkans,” added Deepak Mathur, President Media Vertical at SES. “By adding capacity at 23.5 degrees East, we’re giving Telekom Srbija the ability to consolidate and grow its subscriber base and channel lineup while maintaining the reliability and service excellence their customers expect.”
