    Bloomberg UTV launches new daily show with Vivek Law

    MUMBAI: Bloomberg UTV, the English business news channel, is launching a new show, On The Move, starting 27 April.

    The one-hour daily show hosted by Bloomberg UTVs editor Vivek Law will be aired at 8 am. The show will provide “comprehensive coverage of market openings and live reporting on the stories around the globe and its impact on Indian businesses and stocks,” claims the channel.

    In this show, Law will speak to Bloomberg editors across the globe to get their perspective on developments that have taken place in their respective regions and which could impact Indian markets.  
         
      Through On The Move, Law and his team will also provide a quick outline of stocks that have been in news the previous day or post the market-close and how they may be impacted by global affairs, the channel said.

    “The launch of On The Move is part of Bloomberg UTV’s strategy to build a rich market-related programme slate. Through this prolific programme slate, the channel aims to deliver in-depth offering of business and financial news programming from its studios across India while staying connected with the Bloomberg offices across the globe. On The Move joins an array of prolific programming line-up of the morning time band including Morning Call, Market Movers and First Trades taking viewers through pre-market movements to real-time breaking news coverage of the market,” the company said in a statement.

    Bloomberg UTV is also introducing a video wall, a touch-screen which will give a unique viewing experience to the audience. On the video wall, stock related graphics can not only be animated but can be moved, slid or resized at the touch of a finger. This screen can be used to play video, images and graphics.

  • Mint finds new partner in Bloomberg UTV as content marriage with CNBC-TV18 ends

    Mint finds new partner in Bloomberg UTV as content marriage with CNBC-TV18 ends

    MUMBAI: Bloomberg UTV and Mint have entered into a strategic content alliance, indicating that new marriages are taking place between the television and print mediums.

    The new alliance marks the end of English business newspaper Mint‘s content relationship with the leading business television network CNBC-TV18.

    As per the fresh deal, Bloomberg UTV and Mint will share content with each other on a daily basis, and undertake various joint editorial initiatives through the year.

    Bloomberg UTV business head Deepak Lamba clarified that as the partnership with Mint is on exclusive beasis, Mint’s earlier content partnership with CNBC-TV18 stands null and void.

    In March 2009, Mint had entered into a content deal with CNBC-TV18.

    Lamba said that it was natural for both the brands to come together. “It gives us a print medium while Mint gets a television medium to present their stories,” Lamba said.

    Under the new partnership, Mint will produce news and lifestyle related weekly television shows, which will be aired exclusively on Bloomberg UTV.

    Bloomberg UTV will also feature important news and analyses from Mint every day and every issue of Mint will carry relevant news related stories from Bloomberg UTV.

    Said Lamba, “The brand essence of both Mint and Bloomberg UTV have been based on cutting these confusion multipliers and getting straight to the information – clear and usable.”

    Mint positions its brand as ‘Refreshing Clarity in Business‘, while Bloomberg UTV had last year changed its look to make it ‘Blunt. And Sharp‘.
            
      Mint editor R Sukumar said, “At Mint, we have always focused on delivering clarity in business news to our readers. Our partnership with Bloomberg UTV will further enhance our offering, and give us an additional platform to showcase our content.”

    Bloomberg UTV editor Vivek Law added, “This partnership will bring together the best minds in Indian business journalism, and we look forward to delivering compelling content that will serve the needs of country’s top decision-makers.”

    However, this partnership will have no bearing on Mint’s existing association with The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg UTV’s partnership with Bloomberg.
