This is the first step in a long-term agreement between the two entertainment-sector companies that will be progressively widened in the future. In this first phase of the accord, Vme and BRB Internacional have agreed on various animation series for broadcast in the U.S. Hispanic markets in the United States – and some feature-length films, too, such as My Friend Bernard – aimed at pre-school and family audiences. The agreement includes the disemination of these productions both on Vme’s television network that reaches 70M U.S. housholds and via its video-on- demand services.
