APOS Spotlight: TV5MONDE Asia-Pacific

Throughout 2018, TV5MONDE Asia-Pacific increased the distribution of its channels in the AsiaPac region by an additional 12 million subscribers on traditional pay-TV platforms.

On top of the pay-TV distribution, which now reaches 102 million subscribers, TV5MONDE channels are available to 250 million mobile TV users in the region. “Unlike most players in Asia, we started our digital journey a long time ago, back in 2002,” says Alexandre Muller, managing director of TV5MONDE Asia-Pacific. “Therefore, a lot has already been done to match the evolving ecosystem’s requirements and needs. It is mandatory for us to build and maintain our relevance with the different business models available. Having a strong SVOD catalog, and regularly reinforcing it, is a way for us to close the loop and make our global offerings even more relevant.”

Muller adds: “We have always had a local approach while keeping the bigger picture in mind.”
