With the exponential growth of digital content, content discovery and distribution is becoming increasingly challenging in today’s world. In an increasingly fragmented environment, the challenge for distribution channels is to get access to right content in the minimal possible timeframe. On the other hand content providers, especially small-time artists and independent content creators are struggling to maximize reach and dial-up monetization.

Speaking about the partnership, Atul Madan, Senior Vice President, Digital Lifestyle Solutions at Mahindra Comviva said, “We are very pleased with our partnership with Sacom Mediaworks as it puts us on a stronger footing in the Middle East and Africa.
