Our Ambition

THE GO-TO FREE-TO-AIR DESTINATION

Since the creation of the core channel “La Une” nearly half a century ago, TF1’s unique place in the daily lives of French men and women has been undisputed: when people want to understand what’s going on in the news or are looking for entertainment, they turn to our channels first.

Now we are expanding our digital footprint, with a clear ambition: to establish ourselves as the go-to free-to-air destination for news and family entertainment by developing France's leading free streaming platform.

Our approach

Consolidating our market leadership in linear TV

We are France’s no.1 free-to-air TV broadcaster, and intend to remain so. That’s partly because our channels are such a perfect fit, appealing to all audiences. But mainly because our strong, distinctive editorial stance makes us a standout in the French broadcasting landscape - for viewers and advertisers alike. Our schedules range from France’s most popular entertainment brands to prestige drama, and from major sporting events to Europe’s most-watched news bulletins. Our ambition: to continue nurturing popular culture, and to bring French people together around our programmes

Becoming France’s no.1 free streaming platform

With the launch of TF1+, our ambition is to create France’s go-to free streaming platform. We aim to be on every screen, starting with connected TVs, so that we can be there for French consumers as they increasingly migrate to on-demand viewing habits. The idea is to offer not just premium content - but also a seamless, personalised and high-quality experience. In doing so, we aim to capture a bigger slice of value of the online advertising market, especially by ramping up our data capabilities - so that we can sustainably finance an ever-better quality content offer and make it available free of charge to the broadest possible audience.
