GPB Director General spoke about the public broadcaster’s role in strengthening Georgian culture and society, and presented the GPB’s new platform 1tvplay.ge.
“The results of the latest surveys demonstrate the tendency of transformation from traditional onto digital media, especially in the case of young audience. Taking into account the challenges of the digital epoch, the Public Broadcaster offered the first ever free BVOD platform to the Georgian public that is another step forward for the development of Georgian creative industry,” said Tinatin Berdzenishvili.
