Startup launches a visual guide to what to do and where to go

Simply, it's tourist magazine in a TV format.

Tourist TV creates a dedicated tv show for cities which plays in four and five star properties. "A bit like a tourist magazine but in a tv format. We also broadcast the show in both its entirety as well as segments on our web site as well as our dedicated YouTube channel," said co-founder Steven Hopkinson.

According to Hopkinson, the show is updated monthly thereby making it relevant and timely. Already has over 360 leading 4 & 5 Star Hotels carrying the service across the cities in which it operates.

The team is also creating an Eco system where they bring the show, online ad apps all together to help a visitor either to the city or thinking of visiting the city understand the inner workings of the city.

The company started in Shanghai in late 2009 and have expanded to six cities in Asia including Singapore. Founders have bank rolled the business personally to-date.

Hokinson said that team have built a tourism content platform for the STB and that they are using this to house and aggregate tourism content. "This will allow us to better serve the tourism marketplace and to feed specialised apps we are currently building."

Hopkinson said tha Tourist TV will continue to expand into more cities. "We have identified an additional 10 cities we are looking to expand into."

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
