Sydney – Ten Network Holdings Limited announced that Network Ten (Australia) will launch a new digital multi-channel, ELEVEN, which will be the new destination for fun and bold programming with particular appeal to the ‘distinctly youthful’ market. In addition, Network Ten Pty Limited (Network Ten) and CBS Studios International (CBS) announced the proposed formation of a joint venture, ElevenCo Pty Limited (ElevenCo), which will provide content to ELEVEN.

ELEVEN will also become the exclusive free-to-air home of the iconic The Simpsons. ELEVEN will be broadcast 24 hours a day in standard definition (SD) digital transmission on channel 11, and is planned to commence broadcasting in early 2011. The proposed joint venture is subject to approval by FIRB in accordance with the usual obligations associated with investment by overseas investors in Australian media-related activities.
