Michał Winnicki and his company MWE Media purchased 100% of the shares in Golf Zone – a company broadcasting the TV channel Golf Chanel Polska. Thus, Golf Chanel Polska will not stop broadcasting, as previously announced. At the same time, it will be the first sports channel in the extensive portfolio of the MWE Networks group.

“I am extremely proud that I was able to communicate with the owners of Golf Zone very quickly and close the transaction in just a few days. Golf Chanel Polska has excellent distribution with the largest operators, Polsat Box, Canal+, Netia, UPC Polska, Vectra and Multimedia, but we will try to quickly introduce it to the offers of smaller and medium pay TV operators. We will also bet on a wider possibility of watching the channel via the Internet. At this point, we are integrating Golf Chanel Polska with MWE Networks broadcasting systems, and from July we will make its programming offer much more attractive. We are also looking forward to cooperating with the advertising office of Polsat Media,” said Michał Winnicki, the owner of the MWE Networks group.

“This is very good news for Polish golf and for the media market. Negotiations with MWE Networks were finalized in record time. Golf Channel Polska is an ambitious, unique project that fits perfectly into the growing awareness of a healthy lifestyle in our country. It will be continued, and now it has gained new opportunities as part of a larger media group,” said Marek Sowa, chairman of the supervisory board and co-founder of Golf Channel Polska.

The new composition of the Supervisory Board and Management Board of Golf Zone will be announced soon. It is also planned to move the headquarters to Szczecin, although sports editors and commentators will also be able to work in the Warsaw office of MWE Networks.

MWE Networks has in its portfolio the nationwide terrestrial TV Antena HD, supra-regional TVC, music channels: Power TV, Nuta.TV, Nuta Gold, children's: Top Kids, Junior Music and thematic channels: Home TV, Adventure, Filmax, Xtreme TV and Ultra TV 4K. Moreover, MWE Networks is the operator of terrestrial DVB-T/T2 multiplexes in such cities as Wrocław, Świdnica, Jelenia Góra, Częstochowa, Tomaszów Mazowiecki, Szczecin and Katowice.
