Aidem_VenturesOne of the leading news channels in Karnataka, BTV News has roped in Aidem Ventures, an independent media consulting, marketing and advertising company, to monetise its advertising inventory. BTV News, which went on air in July 2014, is available on a variety of platforms ranging from DTH services like Airtel, Videocon D2h, leading cable networks like Hathway, Act, INCable, Siti, Den Network  to Youtube and Google Play. This works in the channel's favour as advertisers have the advantage of reaching its viewers not only on TV but also through other connected devices.

GM Kumar, MD, BTV News, said, “We are extremely confident that this collaboration with Aidem Ventures will aid us in monetizing our advertising inventory better. They have been managing the ad sales for some of the biggest news brands from India and abroad. So we saw Aidem's ability to position channels in the advertiser market in a way that works both in the favour of the advertiser and the channel. Since BTV News is one of the leading channels in the Karnataka news space, it was important for us to assign the monetization to a team that truly comprehends the value of such an offering.”
