Republic announces global service R. Global
Mumbai: Many have tried. Most have failed. But the Arnab Goswami-led Republic Network is not letting that get in the way of its ambition to go global. On 16 June, it announced on Twitter that it is expanding its expanding Republic internationally with R.Global, without revealing whether it would be a TV channel or an online service or a streaming service.
However, what it did say is that it is hiring more than 120 journos across the globe to “deliver world class content and investigation to our viewers. Arnab is personally committed to the expansion of Indian media in the global market. R. Global is a first step in that direction. With R. Global, Republic will take its international network to another level.”
The news service stated that it was going to hire 100 digital professionals across tech, content and product teams. The company disclosed that it has seen a 600 per cent digital growth and increase in traffic.
Additionally, it highlighted that “it is set to deliver a game changer product on air and online with an all-new look and feel with unmatchable content line up.”
And in true Arnab style it ended the thread by saying: “We are bigger, louder and fiercer! #RepublicIsTheNews and the people of India are on our side. With R. Global, a whole new look, unparalleled journalism, digital expansion and deep reportage, Republic is set to change the news. All over again.”

CNBC India unveils new logo, rolls out refreshed identity across network
Debuted at IBLA, the redesign signals a sharper, digital-first future
MUMBAI: CNBC has unveiled a refreshed brand identity across its India network, introducing a new logo and visual system that reflects a more modern, digital-first direction.
The rebrand was officially revealed at the India Business Leader Awards held in Mumbai on March 14, marking the first public showcase of the updated design at one of the network’s most prominent platforms.
The overhaul is among the most visible brand updates for CNBC in recent years, aimed at aligning its look and feel with evolving audience habits and a growing multi-platform presence.
At the centre of the refresh is a redesigned logo that moves away from the network’s long-standing multi-coloured peacock motif, opting instead for a cleaner and more minimalist aesthetic. A key visual cue is a blue upward-pointing arrow embedded within the letter ‘N’, symbolising forward momentum, growth and a focus on the future.
The new identity is being rolled out across the entire CNBC cluster in India, including CNBC-TV18, CNBC-TV18 Prime, CNBCTV18.com, CNBC Awaaz and CNBC Bajar. The move brings a more cohesive and contemporary design language across television and digital platforms alike.
The rollout began on March 30, with the network aiming to create a unified viewer experience regardless of how audiences access its content, be it on broadcast, online or connected devices.
With this refresh, CNBC is signalling its next phase of growth in India, blending legacy credibility with a sharper, forward-looking identity designed for an increasingly digital news ecosystem.
