Headquartered in Le Grand-Saconnex, Switzerland, Mtel Swiss leverages its international long-term partnerships and relationship network to help partners expand their presence in the territories it covers. The company is part of the MTEL Group, a telecommunications and media group with operations across Europe. Its ownership by Arena Sport ties it closely to the sports broadcasting ecosystem of Southeast Europe and the former Yugoslav countries.
History

Following the acquisition, the company was renamed MTEL Swiss and became part of the MTEL Group, which leads different businesses across Europe. The rebranding aligned the company with the MTEL Group's broader telecommunications and media operations. Since then, Mtel Swiss has continued to trade in sports media rights, distributing content from professional sports leagues through various media channels including television, audio, terrestrial, in-flight, broadband, internet, and mobile.
