Singapore/New Delhi – GlobeCast has created a new division in Asia to oversee the content acquisition and distribution (CAD) business. GlobeCast’s CAD team is actively securing carriage deals for TV channels and content providers with DTH, Cable and IPTV platform operators worldwide.

In less than a year, GlobeCast secured regulatory clearances on behalf of the channel and launched the broadcaster to 16 key digital platforms in India, Singapore, Hong Kong, Korea, Indonesia and Philippines. This ensured the channel’s reach to more than 25 million homes in the region. The channel can be viewed by subscribers of SingTel, StarHub, Hong Kong Cable, SK Broadband, Destiny Cable, Indovision, and India’s DISH DTH, WWIL CABLE, DISH HITS, INCABLE, 7 STAR CABLE, BIG TV DTH, AIRTEL DTH, DD DIRECT, HATHWAY CABLE and SUN DIRECT DTH.
