Dear reader,
As you can imagine, launching the BRICS Global Television Network( BGTN) took an impossible amount of blood, sweat and tears.
BGTN is a first-of-its-kind media platform focusing on news, events and lifestyle across the emerging nations block.
In the run-up to the 15th BRICS Summit, our small team worked tirelessly to produce a teaser of our upcoming 24-hour channel.

There was as much laughter and pranks to match the tears and tantrums to meet the tight deadlines for our ‘soft launch.’
Our team worked through weeks of late nights, sacrificing family time to produce content worthy of BRICS.
Here’s a look at what our staff got up to during the launch and the 15 BRICS Summit.
