ABS-CBN was represented by a delegation that included its chairman, Mark Lopez; president and CEO, Carlo Katigbak; chief operating officer, Cory Vidanes; Group CFO, Rick Tan; and chief partnership officer, Bobby Barreiro.
New partnership
“The new partnership seeks to deliver enjoyable, enriching, and informative content to audiences via ALLTV available on Channel 2 on free TV, cable, and satellite TV nationwide,” the parties said in a joint statement.
After losing its legislative franchise in 2020, ABS-CBN has transitioned into a content-producing company.
ALLTV is under Prime Assets Ventures Inc. led by businessman Manuel Paolo Villar.
It is available on Channel 2 on free-to-air TV and Planet Cable; Channel 16 on digital, Channel 35 on Cignal TV and Sky Cable; as well as local cable stations nationwide.
In September 2022, ALLTV partnered with the Philippine Cable and Telecommunications Association, Inc. to expand its nationwide airing and “reach more homes, even the far-flung areas in the country.”
