“We are thrilled to report that Kartoon Channel! now reaches 57 countries around the world with fully dedicated channels, as well as branded programming blocks in many regions,” said Paul Robinson, president of Kartoon Channel! Worldwide and head of international distribution. “Entering a new market in Indonesia with Link Net further enhances our global brand recognition and continues to build our reputation with media partners and audiences, as well as sets the stage for further expansions in the Asia-Pacific region. We are rapidly becoming the go-to destination for kids and families by offering family-friendly, safe content that not only entertains but provides value-driven entertainment. Kartoon Channel!’s expansion into Indonesia is a pivotal step in our international growth strategy, and we are excited about the prospects this new market brings.”

Andy Heyward, chairman and CEO of Kartoon Studios, said, “When I first met Paul Robinson, he was managing director of Disney Channel Worldwide and was responsible for its global build-out to become the most important children’s platform in the world. Now, as global head of distribution for Kartoon Studios, that is precisely what Paul is working on today. His growing success with Kartoon Channel! Worldwide now adds to the profitability and growth of Kartoon Channel! in the U.S., as Kartoon Channel! Worldwide positions itself to be the standard of quality and safety for children everywhere. With that said, we are thrilled to announce our ongoing expansion of Kartoon Channel! in leading and emerging markets around the world with the latest launch in the Indonesian market on Link Net. This most recent platform debut in Southeast Asia is a strategic move that offers significant growth potential and value for our company and stakeholders, providing us with access to a vast audience of young viewers in one of the largest populations in the world. Indonesia’s growing middle class and increasing internet penetration support a strong demand for quality entertainment, and we are excited to offer just that.”

“Expanding into Indonesia increases and diversifies our revenue streams, reducing reliance on existing markets, and this geographical diversification strengthens our financial stability and opens up new avenues for growth for Kartoon Channel! across the globe,” Heyward added.
