The communications and media industry engages in the development, creation and delivery of content and multimedia services. Singapore's well-developed infrastructure stands it in good stead as a leading player in the industry.
In the last couple of years, Singapore's media industry has made significant inroads into the international market, with a slate of co-production projects with leading international players across various platforms, and an increasing demand for Made-by-Singapore content. Channel NewsAsia, which is viewed in more than 20 territories across Asia, is owned and managed by MediaCorp that is the largest and most established broadcaster in Singapore. Media giants like Disney Singapore, CNBC Asia, MTV Asia, and Cable & Reuters all have regional bases in Singapore. This translates to greater opportunities in cable broadcasting, wireless communications, broadcast production, and programming. |
