Bongo

Bongo is a South Asian Over-the-top media services and video-on-demand services platform, combining an unprecedented content library with state-of-the-art video delivery technology. Bongo also manages a network of YouTube channels and influencers in 5 countries with over 500 Channels under management and 230+ million subscribers in the network and a reach over 396+ million unique viewers a month.

Business overview

Bongo works closely with telecom operators to offer premium content as the potential of the local market (180M population, rapid mobile data expansion) is unleashed. Bongo's content library spans 5 languages and boasts 57,000 titles. With offices in Dhaka, Kathmandu, Kolkata, and Colombo, Bongo is growing its footprint across the subcontinent.

 

Additionally, global telecom partnerships ensure non-residential Bangladeshi, Nepali and Sri Lankan communities have access to their favourite entertainment content.

 

Video delivery is supported by custom-built proprietary technology, developed after extraordinary demand crippled local infrastructure. Bongo serves live and on-demand content from its data center that houses a digital head end and CDN origin. Bongo's client side applications are designed and developed in-house and are available on (responsive) web, app (Android & iOS) and soon on smart TVs. Bongo is working with all the largest telcos i.e. Grameenphone, Robi, Banglalink and connected with over 15 operators in 7 countries with its platform.
