Known for its inclusive programming, OUTtv, expressed enthusiasm for entering the Asian market. “We are thrilled to work with Ulight in our efforts to expand our reach and share authentic daring and original stories with new audiences in Asia,” said Brad Danks, CEO of OUTtv.

Bringing Global Content to Local Markets

Ulight serves as an operations hub for both OUTtv and wedotv Movies’s content, handling logistics, programming, and scheduling to align with Asian time zones and audience preferences. This collaboration will also give broadcasters access to carefully curated programming that reflects viewers’ distinct tastes and interests in the region.
