Arm of Ireland's public service broadcaster From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Raidió Teilifís Éireann Commercial Enterprises (RTÉ CEL) is the commercial arm of Ireland's public service broadcaster RTÉ or Raidió Teilifís Éireann. RTÉ CEL is run independently from RTÉ, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, in similar way to BBC Studios, owned by RTÉ's British counterpart BBC. In 1999 it divested RTÉ of its 40% share of Cablelink. During the 1990s it had great success with Riverdance. It owns and publishes The RTÉ Guide, www.rte.ie and numerous spin off publications from RTÉ shows. It had an interest in Tara TV.
