TechStorm, Asia’s fastest-growing esports, gaming and tech entertainment network announced that it will expand its footprint on the Philippines’ premier Direct-to-Home (DTH) platform partner Cignal, coming soon in April 2021.

This came hot off the heels of TechStorm’s recent milestone announcement of surpassing 100 major leading platform partners in nine countries at lightning speed of fewer than 22 months. The new launch expanded TechStorm’s current distribution partnership with Cignal, adding Cignal DTH on top of its OTT platform, Cignal Play. Now, the Filipino audience will enjoy tech & esports entertainment on both Cignal Postpaid Plan and Prepaid Load and Cignal Play on Premium Pack.

“The launch of TechStorm came at a perfect time as the Philippine market shot up in the nationwide interest of esports, gaming and cutting-edge innovations amongst the youth segment and Filipino families across the board given that they are mostly at home due to the pandemic. We have expanded the distribution of TechStorm’s premium, world-class quality content on major esports tournaments, leagues, game reviews and inspiring stories of innovation and startups to our Cignal subscribers to show our commitment to offering not only the best entertainment experience but also introducing content that is fresh and innovative for our subscribers to enjoy.”, says Guido R. Zaballero, FVP, Head of Marketing.

“We are exhilarated to work with the wonderful, trend-forward management and team at Cignal to bring TechStorm onto their crown jewel – the DTH platform. We are confident that our near-100% first and exclusive content on Asia’s trending esports, newest and latest game reviews, behind-the-scenes true to life stories such as E-Sports Revolution that unveils the inner workings of this exciting esports space, will bring delight and a huge wow factor to our beloved Filipino subscribers and their families. This expansion is well-timed with our new pop culture branding which will resonate perfectly with the youth and young at heart. Cignal subscribers will enjoy real-life lessons that come from the billion-makers on Meet The Drapers, a reality investment pitch series with American billionaire investor Timothy Draper that shows how entrepreneurs cope with COVID-19 as part of their startup journey and so much more. I would like to say a warm welcome to all Cignal DTH subscribers tuning in to TechStorm channel this coming April!”, says Debbie Lee, TechStorm Founder & CEO.
