Z1 was the first Czech private 24-hour news channel. Since September 2009, it focused on finance, economic and business news and provided the only continuous business news service in the Czech Republic.[1][2]

Z1 broadcast live every weekday between 7am and 11pm. Its business and finance news service was supplemented by business talk shows and a daily interview program with high-profile guests. The rest of the program consisted of acquired documentaries and other features. Over the weekend, Z1 broadcast documentaries and life style programs.

Z1 broadcast over DVB-T, DVB-S, DVB-C and IPTV. It could also be viewed online and on mobile phones through a streaming video application.[3] In cooperation with T-Mobile Czech Republic, Z1 provided daily news SMS and MMS updates to subscribers.[4]
