Partnership between Visiware and Cezzer

Paris, 19 January 2009 – The company CEZZER, specialist in consumer multimedia technologies, and Visiware, worldwide leader of interactive games for television, announce a partnership.

Available since 14 November 2008, CEZZER’s videoclub allows high-speed internet subscribers who do not have access to television via DSL (60% of subscribers) to easily access the VoD (video on demand) service directly on their TV set without having to use their computer, no matter their internet provider and without having to pay an additional subscription fee.

Thanks to the partnership between CEZZER and Visiware, they will be able to make the most of playing interactive television games.

According to Patrick Touzeau, CEZZER’s CEO “Our partnership with Visiware is consistent with our approach and ambition to generalize access to online digital leisure”.

“Being available on CEZZER allows us to complete our distribution channels. This new media will allow us to offer our games to a broader scope of consumers. The market of casual games is expanding very quickly and we are developing our multiplatform catalog around it” declares Laurant Weill, Visiware’s Chairman of the Board.
