Iridium has approved its 2026–2028 media and entertainment investment plan.

The plan involves the development of multiple global information and entertainment channels, with an international—not regional—reach. The portfolio will primarily include Austral, our new digital news platform, alongside several English- and Spanish-language radio channels and a range of thematic television channels that will become part of a new independent streaming platform.

Iridium Shield Group is firmly committed to providing neutral, balanced, and above all, ethical information through its media channels. At the same time, we aim to develop distinctive entertainment content with meaningful cultural and social impact, combining creativity, innovation, and responsible storytelling.

Among the brands already acquired are Italia on Air, Wita TV, and Iridium FM, which are expected to become fully operational and go live during 2027. Over the following two years, we plan to expand the portfolio through additional strategic acquisitions, building an increasingly attractive and diversified content offering.

All of these assets will ultimately converge within our independent streaming platform, designed to bring together the Group’s entire media and entertainment portfolio and offer audiences a distinctive global destination for news, information, and entertainment.
