The TV & Video market in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has been experiencing significant growth and development in recent years.

Local special circumstances, such as the diverse cultural landscape and language preferences in the MENA region, have also contributed to the development of the TV & Video market. The region is home to a diverse population with different language preferences, and this has led to the availability of content in multiple languages, catering to the specific needs of different communities.
