Tuning in to KMTV

(BIM), Computer-generated Imagery (CGI), and administrative services. KPO has a UK team that ensures all of their outputs meet UK quality standards. Companies like these provide practices with a cost-effective and efficient solution to the growing demand within the construction industry.

With the advent of technology, communication, and collaboration have become all the more convenient, making outsourcing a viable option. Leveraging a team of outsourced architects to do non-core activities allows local architectural companies to focus on their core competencies, concentrate on more highly technical tasks, and meet project deadlines effectively. This setup also allows companies to take on bigger projects and improve operational efficiency driving growth in the dynamic construction sector.

Many of you reading this have probably received a call from one of our team of professional and young reporters (75% of the business is aged 25 or under) asking for an expert voice in a story for our flagship Kent Tonight programme (weeknights 5.30pm-6pm) or for one of our specialists shows (The Kent Politics Show or Made in Kent, to name a few).

For the uninitiated, KMTV is an Ofcom regulated local television station and production company, jointly owned by the University of Kent and the Iliffe Media Group (who themselves own The KM Media Group). The channel is also one of 34 around the country which make up the Local Television Network, all serving hyperlocal communities and currently reaching an audience of 16.2 million people. By the end of this summer, IP technology will mean KMTV and the LTVN will have a reach of 98% of all UK households.

As well as our 24/7 news, current affairs, and entertainment service, KMTV also has a production arm (KMTV Creative). Since starting in 2018, they have produced more than 40 documentary shorts, hundreds of hours of special programmes and live streams, and two British Film Institutecommissioned children’s television series (currently streaming on ITVX). This activity has helped put KMTV not just on the regional map but has made it truly global with teams shooting documentaries in Chile, Colombia, France, Ghana, Mauritius, Mexico, and Peru.

The cherry on top has been recognition from industry bodies, including the Royal Television Society (Southern), Sandford St Martin Trust, Arts and Humanities Research Council and the Kent Press and Broadcast Awards.
