dbo:abstract
  • Boxer TV Access is a Swedish brand owned by Tele2 AB providing pay television channels on the digital terrestrial television network in Sweden. Modeled on the British ITV Digital, it was founded in October 1999. Some channels on the Swedish DTT are free-to-air, but most of the channels require subscription from Boxer. Boxer has claimed to have around 500,000 subscribers by June 2016 when it was acquired by ComHem. Boxer offers dozens of channels, with the number of channels varying depending on location and how one wants to count. As of early 2008, channels from Boxer broadcast on four national transmitter networks, of which three (MUX2, MUX3 and MUX4) can be received by 98 percent of the population using a regular antenna. The fourth network, named MUX5, has lower coverage. Another transmitter network (MUX1) has higher coverage but it doesn't contain any Boxer channels. The majority shareholder was held in Boxer TV Access by Teracom which is owned by the Swedish state. The British venture capital firm 3i held a 30 percent stake. Teracom acquired this 30% stake from 3i in November 2008. Teracom sees this 100% stake as a logical next step. 3I had held the 30% having acquired the shares from Skandia Media Invest in 2005. With its 100% stake, Teracom moves from majority to sole shareholder in Boxer. "Teracom has always been the main shareholder in Boxer and acquiring all the shares is a logical continuation of that ownership. Boxer will continue its successful business in the same manner as before, that is being a pay-TV operator dedicated to terrestrial platforms and working independently of any individual broadcaster", says Crister Fritzson, CEO of Teracom. In March 2008, Boxer TV A/S, a subsidiary of Boxer TV Access, won the franchise to build and operate the terrestrial pay television platform in Denmark. In February 2009 it launched this service in Jutland covering West Denmark. This service will extend during 2009 to most of Denmark. In 2008, Boxer announced that it had put in a bid to operate three of the four multiplexes of the DTT service for Ireland, in conjunction with Irish company Communicorp. On 21 July 2008 Boxer DTT Ireland were awarded the Irish franchise Boxer TV Ireland subject to contract. However, on 20 April 2009 the Broadcasting Commission of Ireland announced that contract negotiations had ended and Boxer DTT Ireland had withdrawn its application to operate the multiplexes. In 2016, Sweden's operator Com Hem announced it had acquired Boxer TV-Access AB for an enterprise value of SEK 1,330m. (en)

  • Boxer TV-Access (vardagligt Boxer) är ett företag som levererar digitala TV-kanaler och har ett de facto-monopol på betal-TV i det marksända digitala TV-nätet i Sverige och Danmark. Det grundades i oktober 1999. För att se fria kanaler i det svenska marknätet behöver man inte vara kund hos Boxer, men ett abonnemang hos Boxer ger möjlighet att se fler kanaler. Boxer TV-Access ägdes från november 2008 helt av statliga Teracom. Enligt egen utsago uppnådde företaget 500 000 kunder i november 2005. I juni 2009 tillkännagavs att Boxer genom ägaren Teracom köper upp det finländska PlusTV, som är ett företag med liknande verksamhet som Boxer i Finland. Den 8 februari 2010 avgick Per Norman som VD för Boxer och Teracoms koncernchef Crister Fritzson blev ny tillförordnad VD. I april 2011 ersattes Fritzon av Andrea Gisle Joosen, tidigare VD för Panasonic Norden. Gisle Joosen lämnade sin post som VD efter februari 2014, men var tillgänglig en tid därefter. Under en övergångsperiod var Teracom Groups CFP och vice VD Gunilla Berg tillfällig VD för Boxer. Den 25 augusti 2014 tog Jonas Lönnquist från C More över som VD enligt ett pressmeddelande. Sommaren 2016 kom det uppgifter om att Boxer sålts till TV-distributionsföretaget Com Hem. Affären skulle först godkännas av Sveriges regering och konkurrensverket. Sedan oktober 2016 ingår Boxer TV-Access i Com Hem Group. I Svenskt Kvalitetsindex (SKI) 2015 fick Boxer 66,3 av 100 i betyg i kategorin "Kundnöjdhet Digital-TV Privatmarknad", vilket var nära betyget för branschen (66,7). I mätningen 2016 hade betyget fallit till 57,4 av 100, vilket var under betyget för branschen (62,1). År 2017 steg betyget till 59,3, vilket dock fortfarande är under resultatet för branschen i stort (62). Hösten 2018 förvärvades Com Hem AB av Tele2 Sverige AB. Fusionen fulländades den 30 april 2020 och sedan dess är varumärket Boxer en tjänst tillhandahållen av Tele2. (sv)
