Patrick Vien and Edward Sabin, executive managing directors of international at A+E Networks, tell World Screen about the importance of owning content and the role of digital initiatives in generating creativity, engagement and viewer loyalty.
Distinctive storytelling and IP ownership have been the drivers of A+E Networks’ growth over the last several years, domestically and internationally, with a bouquet of brands available in some 200 markets. The company is known for and remains dedicated to its slate of TV movies, which includes Cocaine Godmother and Harry & Meghan: A Royal Romance. It is also strong in the factual space and continues to push boundaries, with Live PD scoring big ratings on A&E.
