ONE Championship is prepping a brand-new edition of The Apprentice that will see the winner working directly under Chairman Chatri Sityodtong as his protégé at the ONE Championship Global Headquarters in Singapore.

The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition will feature 16 contestants handpicked from around the world in a high-stakes game of business competitions and physical challenges, and the winner will receive a $250,000 job offer to work for a year directly under Sityodtong. In addition, a total of 12 of Asia’s top CEOs (one CEO per episode) will be featured as guest judges alongside Sityodtong.

The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition will be produced by ONE Championship’s production arm, ONE Studios, and will run on both streaming and linear platforms across the pan-Asian region in the second half of 2020.

Sityodtong stated: “I am thrilled to announce The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition as our biggest foray into the non-scripted series genre. This brand-new concept brings a completely unique and original dimension to The Apprentice with the high-stakes drama of real-life business competitions, coupled with herculean physical challenges, featuring some of Asia’s top CEOs, the world’s greatest martial arts world champions, and A-list celebrities from across the continent. In combining our respective IP and assets, ONE Championship will redefine the non-scripted genre in Asia across scale and scope. The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition just might be the toughest in the history of all Apprentice shows!”
