Maxman.TV Information

MaxmanTV was previously named as Hiraku Media Group Sdn Bhd, a Malaysian IPTV company formed in 2009 between Izmir Mujab and Ali Moustafa. The company started by launching Hiraku TV - a brand which encompassed an ecosystem of products, technologies, services and related businesses that provide solutions in entertainment and advertising. The company was born out of the need to be able to provide internet based high quality video on demand - a service which was non existent in Asia at the time, controlled by monopoly linear satellite/cable companies in the region. The company successfully went through a Research and Development phase and deployed the Hiraku TV Set Top Box, able to stream video content with interactive advertising features bridging the gap between television and the web. Hiraku TV allowed users to search, watch, explore and interact with on-demand video content on your television through a broadband connection. In 2011, MaxmanTV began streaming in Malaysia. The MaxmanTV IPTV offered viewers in South East Asia PREMIUM HOLLYWOOD shows and movies, specifically targeted at the male demographic. Then MaxmanTV IPTV became the number one video website in Malaysia with a reach of 2.4 Million views. To further expand audiences, Channel Partnerships were established with MSN Malaysia, Emagine set top boxes, and Samsung Smart TVs. Furthermore, the iOS app for Apple devices and Android devices via Google Play store were also later launched in 2013. In late 2013, MaxmanTV launched its YouTube video channel featuring pranks, social experiments, edgy stunts, and comedy. Our trademark edgy, daring videos have a track record of always going viral and quickly gain a huge following. In Nov 2014, MaxmanTV signed with Maker Studios Inc (Disney), the biggest YouTube network in the world. Digital advertising has been a growth market for many years and is becoming a more popular medium to advertise products and create brand awareness making traditional forms of advertising. MaxmanTV was nominated and awarded BEST VIRAL VIDEO OF ASIA 2013 WINNER prestigious prize by a panel of industry experts and independent judges.
