We were the first channel to premiere a localized, pan-regional format ten years ago and since then have consistently rolled out original productions that truly resonate with our viewers. This year, we\u2019ll be expanding our slate to feature an AXN programming lineup that\u2019s even more locally relevant with a bigger focus on social media engagement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ganesh Rajaram, the general manager\/executive VP of FremantleMedia International in Asia, said, &#8220;<em>Asia&#8217;s Got Talent<\/em> season one was one of the most successful talent shows to have aired in the region.

With the <em>Got Talent<\/em> franchise now reaching over 70 commissions across the world we are extremely pleased to see <em>Got Talent<\/em> back on air on AXN in 2017 as part of this multiyear agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lim added, \u201c<em>Asia\u2019s Got Talent<\/em> is an incredible platform to showcase the region\u2019s emerging talent and given AXN\u2019s enormous reach and influence in Asia, it\u2019s an ideal match.
