In May 2023, it merged with Japan's Mediagene Inc. to form TNL Mediagene. The Group has since risen to become one of the first digital media company in the global Chinese-speaking community to integrate cross-industry content, technology, and data services. It is also one of the first Asian media companies to be listed on NASDAQ.
TNL Mediagene Chief Executive and Co-Founder Joey Chung said, "These awards not only recognize the Group's strategic growth from an independent media outlet to its continuous expansion in content, technology, and data services, but also inspire the team to keep progressing in delivering high-quality content and digital technology services. We look forward to achieving continued success in the Pan-Asian market."
