In 2010 Hatem Tag along with a group of friends who shared the same interest and dream of creating content online and sharing it with people had the idea that they were capable of creating a platform and place for artists to collaborate and create videos.
The company managed to put a foot in the market, expand exponentially and create a buzz in society and not only the market it operates in. The company’s crew was hosted in almost all major talk shows back in 2012 in Egypt (including Amr Adeeb, Yousri Fouda, Bassem Youssef and Mona El Shazly), the major biggest 3 news channels in the region (Al Jazeera, Al-Arabeya and BBC) as well as print and digital newspapers.
The company started as a social organization that depends on its strategic social networks whether online or offline- to promote its brand, recruit talents and more importantly connect directly with its audience and actively engage them. It’s not only driven by the passion of its owners but the passion of the brand owners who exceeded 350 thousand on Facebook only and more than 4 million viewers on YouTube and 60 thousand on Twitter.
The company’s groundbreaking business model depends on creating an agile organization that adopts a crowdsourcing model which makes it always relevant to the market and able to produce unique creative media products and attract talents whenever needed to complement the company’s resources.
Our first online production was a small awareness informative series “Daleel el mowaten l fehm el seyasa” (The civilians guide to understand politics) to help people understand simple political terms during the revolution back in January.
