2 ARTE in six languages ARTE in English en español po polsku in italiano A multilingual offer, free of charge Linguistic diversity being part of Europe s cultural richness, the ARTE Europe project aims to bring Europe s citizens a larger choice of high-quality TV programmes in their original language, to bring everyone a choice of best-in-class creative programmes. This initiative was made possible by the launch of an EU pilot project with the aim of subtitling European cultural TV content across all Europe. 70 % of Europeans ARTE s existing content in five languages can reach around 305 million Europeans, i.e. about 60 % of Europe s 505 million citizens, in their mother tongue. Adding versions subtitled in Italian could make these programmes available to 360 million European citizens, i.e. 70 % of the total, in their mother tongue. In November 2015, ARTE made the most of its multilingual and digital knowhow to become quadrilingual with the launch of English and Spanish subtitles on arte.tv/en and arte.tv/es respectively. Since November 2016, the channel has also been offering programmes subtitled in Polish on arte.tv/pl. From June 2018, a taste of the new offer ARTE in italiano, principally consisting of live concerts and summer festivals, will be available on arte.tv/it. All of the languages are available free of charge on ARTE websites, connected TVs, and its applications for mobile devices (ios and Android). With its new offer in Italian, ARTE is taking its vision of a shared European culture into the next phase of its development.

3 Reaching new audiences in Europe and beyond A window into European culture in the world ARTE's offer in six languages is available simultaneously throughout Europe (in the 28 European Union Member States, and in European Free Trade Association Member States, namely Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Switzerland). By covering three of the world s five most spoken languages, the many programmes available worldwide under this project reach potentially large audiences around the world, in accordance with the available rights. ARTE po polsku has reached its main audience in Poland and countries with a large Polish diaspora, such as Germany, the US, the UK and France. ARTE in English is a pan-european off ering. The US is among the top 5 countries, which shows that ARTE in English also reaches an international audience.

6 ARTE, a public channel ARTE is a public service European culture channel that puts creativity, diversity and innovation at the centre of its programmes. It was established in 1991 by France and Germany, and sets the benchmark in Europe and around the world for quality programming. French and German TV licence fees cover 95 % of ARTE s budget. It cannot rely on advertising but may develop its own revenue streams, in particular by soliciting sponsorships. A culture channel Every programme with a cultural slant documentaries, dramas, films, magazine news shows, concerts and performances has a home on ARTE. About 55 % of the programmes are documentaries, 25 % films and fiction, 15 % news-related programmes and 5 % feature music and other performing arts. About two-thirds of the programmes broadcast on ARTE are previously unreleased. A European channel ARTE has built partnerships with many public service channels in Europe. These partnerships are a testament to ARTE s determination to produce and broadcast programmes that capture Europe s creativity and diversity, in keeping with the contract that founded the channel, and the open-minded attitude that led to its inception. The channel has thus signed partnership or cooperation agreements with nine other European public channels in Belgium (RTBF), Austria (ORF), the Czech Republic (ČT), Italy (RAI Com), Ireland (RTÉ), Poland (TVP), Greece (ERT), Switzerland (SSR-SRG), and Finland (YLE). 85 % of the programmes that ARTE produces or broadcasts are European productions. The channel s head office is in Strasbourg, a stone s throw from the European Parliament, the Council of Europe, and the European Court of Human Rights. The symbolism of its location is threefold: a successful presence in Europe s broadcast landscape; France and Germany s fruitful friendship; and an enthusiastically and decidedly open attitude towards Europe.
