FIFA opens tender process in Finland for the media rights to several tournaments
These media rights will cover TV, internet protocol television (IPTV), and internet, mobile and radio transmissions for FIFA’s flagship tournaments that are scheduled to take place between 2017 and 2022.
This tender process will allow FIFA to select the media companies that are best placed to operationally secure the required transmission commitments and to achieve FIFA’s objectives of reaching the widest possible audience and providing a high-quality viewing experience for fans.
Through the sale of media rights for its football tournaments, FIFA generates vital income, which is essential to carrying out its activities in football development and governance around the world.
Media companies wishing to submit a tender can request the ITT from the following e-mail address: Finland-Media-Rights@fifa.org.
The request must specify the names and titles of those who will interact with FIFA in the ITT procedure.
Following a question-and-answer period (from Oct 20 to Nov 11, 2016), submissions to FIFA must be received by 17.00 CET on Nov 17, 2016.
Negotiations with shortlisted bidders will commence thereafter on Nov 21, 2016.
