Conax, global provider of solutions for securing multi-device and digital TV services, is celebrating 10 years of success in the Indian pay-TV market today with a press briefing at 21st Convergence India highlighting the company’s key success factors in the country. According to Conax President and CEO, Morten Solbakken, the company’s dedication to pay-TV operators in India, personal service and pioneering approach to the needs of the market and not least its renowned open partnering policy for secure set-top-boxes are among key factors in the company’s continuing growth in India and around the globe. Conax’ 24/7 global support center is well-positioned in the heart of Delhi, with highly skilled professionals and tools including the very successful Operational Security Services that Conax provides to a number of key operators.
An early player in India, Conax has grown together with Indian operators and the pay-TV market. The company boasts an open client device strategy that has led to strong long-term relationships and the continuing confidence of Indian pay-tv operators, including delivery of nearly 25 million security-certified devices through a strategic network of set-top-box partners secured by Conax conditional access solutions.
The company’s client device strategy has brought to market a broad range of security-evaluated set-top-boxes and choice of vendors for operators, ensuring that operators can choose the best devices and price range for their operations and are not locked into a single vendor.
