ABU DHABI - Abu Dhabi Media has announced a new strategy that defines the general vision of the company in preparation for the next fifty years, and is based on innovation and modernisation of its content and digital platforms across all of its media assets; starting from February 19, 2020.

According to the new strategy, Abu Dhabi Media Company, ADM, a subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Developmental Holding Company, ADDH, will be launching its new audience centric content and digital platforms based on extensive audience research in the GCC and Middle East.

Dr. Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of State and Chairman of the Board of Directors of ADM, said: "Abu Dhabi Media Company’s first assets were established through the vision of our founding father, Sheikh Zayed, may God rest his soul, who believed in the importance of the media and regarded it as one of the pillars of development and community engagement. In line with our wise and visionary leadership’s directives to enhance the media ecosystem in the UAE, in anticipation of the future, today, we are marking a new beginning in media sector in the UAE and the region through the new strategy that includes a set of innovative programs across all platforms.''

ADM’s strategy also includes the importance of training and development. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Abu Dhabi Development Holding Company and Abu Dhabi Media Board members for their efforts in overseeing the development of this new strategy," he added.

Abu Dhabi Media’s vision for development is based on three main pillars: content that focuses on audience data and research; programs that provide knowledge, entertainment and culture; and modern and user friendly digital platforms.
