Curiosity Stream Content Expands Reach

Curiosity Stream has entered a new distribution partnership with Hong Kong’s Harbour Rights to broaden the reach of its content across Asia.

The slate features factual titles such as Royals: Keeping the Crown, Besieged Fortresses: Battles of Legend and two seasons of Ancient Engineering, with content produced by Arrow Media, Off the Fence, Terra Mater Studios and more.

Ludo Dufour, VP of licensing at Curiosity, commented, “We are excited to partner with Harbour Rights to broaden the reach of our high-quality factual content across Asia. Our productions perfectly complement the strong offering of the Hong Kong-based distributor, and we believe that leveraging Harbour Rights’ deep expertise in the Asian territories, coupled with its extensive portfolio of clients across the continent, will help us penetrate new markets. This partnership will allow our evergreen, globally appealing and high-quality productions to connect with new audiences in Asia, advancing our mission to enlighten, entertain and inspire viewers worldwide.”

Teremoana Seguin, managing director at Harbour Rights, added, “This partnership with Curiosity Stream comes at a perfect time when the media landscape in Asia is still changing and the documentary market is showing renewed interest in high quality factual content to differentiate from the overflow of travel, food and lifestyle programming. It’s an enrichment and diversification of Harbour Rights’ program offering which typically includes European and Asian TV documentaries. As many players in Asia are focusing on local production, the high value productions brought by Curiosity Stream are an easy pick for buyers who wants to keep an edge.”
