The International Olympic Committee has signed a partnership that will see the Vancouver Winter Olympic Games and the Singapore Youth Olympic Games next year broadcast in Chinese Taipei.

ELTA Technology has acquired the broadcast and exhibition rights across all broadcast platforms, including free-to-air television, subscription television, radio, the internet and mobile phone. ELTA screened the 2008 Beijing Olympics in Chinese Taipei.

Sally Chen, chief executive of ELTA, added: "We are excited to bring both Olympic events to our audiences following the success of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. We shall enable coverage of the Games to all audiences via different media and services. For the first time in Chinese Taipei, the Winter Games will be experienced by viewers in full."
