Media & Digital

Our business unit deals with media and digital business in the region to further meet consumers’ demands and respond to diversifying lifestyles.

We have supported the telecommunications business in Myanmar and are developing media and IT services-related businesses in Asian countries.

Under the Media business segment, we have been providing Japanese content for the widely known TV programme “Japan Hour” which is telecast in 28 territories across Asia, Oceania, and the Middle East, reaching around 91 million homes and hotel rooms.

Our system integration arms in Singapore, Indonesia and Myanmar operate as subsidiaries of SCSK Corporation. SCSK is headquartered in Japan and a subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation that provides IT infrastructure, system consultation and development functions, and DX solutions.

In 2016, we partnered MonotaRO Co. Ltd, a leading player of online Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) business in Japan and launched MonotaRO Indonesia, a business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce platform specializing in MRO to meet a broad range of pantry and office needs in Indonesia.

In the fast-growing digital marketing industry, we have run ADA (Axiata Digital & Analytics Sdn Bhd) with major telcos, Axiata Group and Softbank in Malaysia since 2018. ADA started as a data-driven digital marketing agency, but it's now expanding its business into data analytics and data engineering across 12 Asian countries, offering "digital transformation" to customers with 1,400 employees.

On top of that, we have been aggressively investing in multiple digital services companies to strengthen our Media and Digital businesses.
