ViacomCBS Networks and Sky Italy have announced a new multi-year commercial agreement to extend their collaboration in Italy.
According to the deal, Italian viewers of Paramount Network, Spike and VH1 will also be able to watch these channels on Sky.

Commenting on the development, Raffaele Annecchino, pPresident, ViacomCBS Networks Southern & Western Europe, Middle East and Africa, said: "With Sky as our main distributor and ad sales partner, we can sustain our strong position in the Italian market in the long-term and deliver additional benefits for our viewers and advertisers, including content synergies and wider distribution across multiple platforms. Our new commercial agreement with Sky Media represents an opportunity to effectively support our business and brands over the next years in Italy, which remains one of the most important and valuable markets in which we operate".
Giovanni Ciarlariello, chief media digital & data officer Sky Italia, added: "This strengthened deal with ViacomCBS Networks will give even more investment opportunities to our customers and confirms Sky Media's role as a key player in the market as well as the high quality of its innovative services".
