Homedia was founded in 2003 by Renzo del Mastro and Sébastien D'Amico, which offered DVD rental services, was later expanded from a DVD rental into the biggest independent OTT VOD platform in Switzerland with their video-on-demand service HollyStar.[4][5][6][7][8] In May 2017, Sky Deutschland purchased Swiss online-video service HollyStar and its owner Homedia with Homedia being rebranded as Sky Switzerland on 3 January 2018.[9][10][11] Before the takeover, Teleclub had the broadcast rights for certain Sky content in Switzerland with some of that content being seen on channels from Swisscom TV, Sunrise TV and UPC TV.[12] Now as Sky Switzerland, it subsequently launched Sky Sport as an OTT service in Switzerland, followed by an OTT entertainment service known as Sky Show in 2018.[13][14][15][16][17]
