ABS-CBN Global has had incredible success distributing Philippine content worldwide with its flagship channel TFC which has a viewer base of over 4 million worldwide. ABS-CBN content is also seen worldwide through its YouTube channel with 30 million subscribers and is the second-largest channel in Asia.
The rebranding of myx reinforces their dedication and investment to the nearly 5 million Filipinos in North America, which includes Kollective Hustle launching later this month, their co-production of Sony Pictures’ narrative feature film, Yellow Rose, which released in theaters in early October, the international music marketing of artists like Kiana V. & Inigo Pascual, and a partnership with Tremendous Communications, a leader in Asian American entertainment marketing.
“Asian Americans lead in digital content consumption in the United States and over index in streaming service subscriptions,” says Jeremiah Abraham, Founder and CEO of Tremendous Communications. “Given that Filipinos are the third-largest Asian American population and growing, ABS-CBN Global is strategically positioned to be at the forefront of this important and influential consumer group.”
