Ukrainian media company 1+1 Media has launched a new FAST channel app that feature FAST channels created for an international audience.
1+1 Worldwide provides round-the-clock access to thematic FAST channels 1+1 News and 1+1 Travel in English and Spanish.
“Difficult times encourage us to look for new solutions in interaction with the audience and platforms through which we can communicate with them. Having a large amount of unique, high-quality content that is important for the world in the context of a full-scale invasion, we were looking for ways to distribute it to benefit both the company and the country,” says Oleksandr Remezovsky, Head of International Distribution at 1+1 Media. “Therefore, 1+1 Worldwide is an ambitious project with a powerful goal – introducing Ukrainian culture, identity, and views to the English- and Spanish-speaking worlds through content. There is a great demand for this, so we hope everything will work out.”
