BTVi unveils new brand positioning
MUMBAI: BTVi has unveiled its new positioning, #OpinionsThatCount, aimed at impacting the opinions of the influencers. With this, BTVi will be the voice and choice of the influential. An integrated campaign will be launched primarily catering to influencers, key decision makers and opinion makers.
This campaign charts out an independent path for the brand reinforcing its stance post their partnership with Reuters, which was announced earlier this month, by bringing financial and business news from across the globe to Indian viewers.
“This campaign represents our strong stand focusing on influencing the think tanks of the country who are trend setters and key drivers of the economy. BTVi aims to provide most credible information to its viewers. Through this campaign, the channel continues to reach out to recognized authorities of their fields, whose thoughts and opinions matter to the millions who follow them,” said BTVi chief operating officer Monica Tata.
BTVi intends to be the ‘voice of transforming India’. Not losing sight from current affairs, it will cover positive stories that have made the country proud. The channel will continue to evolve with what is required and will be at the top of news reporting. Programming for the channel will be tweaked to be more glocal (global+local).
It will also have strong digital connect with the viewers with an integrated newsroom.
The team from BTVi will continue to provide in-depth knowledge and expertise on various sectors. Apart from Tata on board, it has Siddharth Zarabi as the editorial editor, Swati Khandelwal as the national editor, anchor and chief of bureau Mumbai at BTVI.
After the recent partnership, the channel is strengthening its leadership position by delivering more value to increasingly sophisticated business audience through credible business news content on a real time basis.
The programming line-up will cater to global and domestic influencers, business leaders and government-stakeholders.
