“Federal Hill puts Live Networks in the heart of Hollywood with personal relations to all major studios.

The short term goal is to sign contracts with all major studios and to be the leader in Scandinavia in VOD and entertainment via digital media,” said Björn Schröder, CEO at Live Networks. “With the extensive business network from Federal Hill, this partnership gives Live Networks a good position to expand the business outside the Nordic regions and business development within the area of new media and entertainment such as new types of TV-channels.”
