Europe continues to be one of the quickest and strongest markets for growth and expansion in the world, and Moldova is no exception. According to the 2008 Human Development Report, the country has experienced constant growth since 2000, and – between the periods of 2000 and 2004 – the economy grew at a rate of 30.1%. In terms of GDP (gross domestic product), they had a 3% growth rate from 2006 to 2007, where they recorded a total GDP of $4.104 billion.
The country is also hoping to grow as far as infrastructure, telecommunications and technology as a whole are concerned. The National Agency for Telecommunications and Information Regulation stated that, last year, 19.1 million lei ($1.5 million) were spent in the field of cable television services. These upgrades and improvements should help more people gain availability to TV7, a news and entertainment station run by Analiticmedia-Group (AMG) which is a subsidiary of Emerging Media Holdings.
These new potential viewers, thanks to the improvements based on cable television infrastructure upgrades, should generate an increased revenue stream for the company. Currently more than 90% of cable television operators have already signed a contract with AMG, which translates into nearly 100,000 subscribers. New and developing markets can only add to the strength and following that TV7 and Emerging Media Holdings have already generated. The total revenue in 2007 was $1,139,415 compared to just $594,719 for the company in 2006. As the country and company continue to grow, so should viewers and revenues.
