In addition, over 22 000 viewers watched the Euro 2008 live matches via Hypp.tv. To top that off, the Hypp.tv website was visited by over 100 000 unique visitors during the Euro 2008 tournament.”
“TM is happy to be able to share this exciting moment with our valued customers in this Hypp.tv viewing party that was held to celebrate the closing of Euro 2008 with a bang! The party provided a unique platform for TM to mingle and get to know our customers better in a sporting event that is arguably the most popular sporting event in the world,” added Puan Zainab.
