Vizeum India, a world renowned media agency that operates in 55 countries will now handle MTV's media planning and execution across electronic, print and online media. In addition to media buying and planning, Vizeum will also support MTV India's digital and marketing initiatives.

MTV, with its clear leadership and stature, has been responsible for various programming innovations and formats which captures the imagination of the today's youth. In recent times, MTV has been in news for its innovative marketing campaigns across Coke Studio@MTV and StuntMania-Underground.

I believe this is truly another feather on the cap of Vizeum in establishing each of our clients are indeed our ambassadors. Had it not been for a satisfactory reference from Nickelodeon, I don't think this discussion would even have begun. We are aware of our responsibilities and will do all that's needed to be done to ensure MTV rocks in the country. This business will be handled out of our Mumbai office.”

The association of these two companies promises a better technological delight for the target audience of the channel making the channel even more preferred. Nickelodeon, part of the Viacom 18 group, was already being serviced by Vizeum India
