In his message, Mr. D’Annoux said Mediahub is an essential service for broadcasters to tap content from leading content providers across the globe. He said there has been excitement over this service that hopefully will lead to more face to face engagement and help secure business opportunities to buy and sell content between content providers and content users.

Mr. Binyuan urged AIBD members to take advantage of this service, which will add value to their programming for greater audience reach as well as open up new business opportunities, and expand their market share and maximize distribution revenues.

At the launch, participants had the opportunity to view a short video clip of the Mediahub profile, its benefits to subscribers and some trailers it has secured from some content providers around the world.

Mediahub also provides other services to include capacity building, marketing and promotion, and educational certification.

MediaHub is operated by the Kuala Lumpur-based Global Media Center for Development (GMCD), a joint initiative between AIBD and WGMH.
