PT Duta Visual Nusantara Tivi Tujuh (previously PT Duta Visual Nusantara), operating as Trans7 or TRANS7 in all caps (stylized TRɅNS|7, pronounced Trans Tujuh in Indonesian, formerly known as TV7) is an Indonesian free-to-air television broadcaster owned by Trans Media, a part of Trans Corp, which in turn is a subsidiary of CT Corp. The channel was officially launched as TV7 on 25 November 2001 at 5:00 PM local time. The final transmission and broadcast aired on 15 December 2006 at 19:00 WIB. The network was then sold by Kompas Gramedia Group to Trans Media and changed the name from TV7 to Trans7.

History

Establishment and early broadcast

Trans7 was established as TV7 based on issuance of a permit by Department of Trade and Industry in Central Jakarta (No. 809/BH.09.05/III/2000). 80% of its share is largely owned by Kompas Gramedia Group. It was initially named Duta Visual Nusantara TV (DVN TV), where the permission was issued on 25 October 1999, based on the Regulation of the Minister of Information (Peraturan Menteri Penerangan, Permenpen) No.797/MP/1999. The network was owned by H. Sukoyo,^[1]^[2] a shrimp pond entrepreneur from East Java, and three other parties which were his Starpage pager business partner. He decided to sell his TV network's establishment permission to Kompas Gramedia. The share purchase of DVN TV was considered as the realization of Kompas Gramedia's intend to be involved in the television industry.

In October 2001, TV7 was planned to start its broadcast, with full broadcast beginning in March 2002. However, on 25 November 2001, TV7 was launched in State Gazette No. 8687 as PT Duta Visual Nusantara Tivi Tujuh (TV7). At the time, the broadcast only covers Greater Jakarta area, with 49 UHF channel, with 5-hour broadcasting time from 17:00-22:00 WIB. The logo itself is the letters "JO", which stands for Jakob Oetama (1931-2020), the co-founder of Kompas Gramedia Group. The logo is also loosely based on the Circle 7 logo that is used by the American broadcast network ABC for its several owned-and-operated and affiliated stations. On 7 April 2002, TV7 was officially on-air, with the broadcasting time extended into 22 hours (04:30-02:30 WIB) in 2003. The broadcast coverage was later extended to Surakarta and Surabaya. TV7 has 300 employees as of 2003. The early programming itself were entertainment-based but inclined with local materials and with an explorative theme, such as Jejak Petualang [id] which still broadcasts today.^[when?]^[3] Nevertheless, TV7's program rating was considered not too well, which led to a report that the network was offered to be bought by Surya Citra Media (SCM)—parent company of SCTV—in July 2003 on the grounds of financial problems, but eventually never happened.^[4]

Iraq invasion coverage

In the first quarter of 2003, TV7 aired daily relays of Al Jazeera during the U.S. invasion of Iraq through a news program titled Invasi ke Irak (Invasion to Iraq). In response, rival broadcaster ANTV started relaying Al Arabiya's coverage of the invasion.^[5]

Re-launch as Trans7

The first logo of Trans7, used from 15 December 2006 to 2013. After that, the logo was revised into the current one which is shown in the infobox.

On 4 August 2006, CT Corp (then Para Group) via Trans Corp authorized to buy a 55% stake in PT Duta Visual Nusantara Tivi Tujuh (as it noted in the book titled Chairul Tanjung si Anak Singkong; lit.: Chairul Tanjung the Cassava Boy). In conjunction with Trans TV's 5th anniversary on 15 December 2006 at 19:00 local time, the channel was rebranded as Trans7, making it the second CT Corp owned television network. With the buyout and relaunch, the network moved its office to Trans TV's building.

For the first time, Trans7 became the official broadcaster of the 2018 FIFA World Cup along with the sister channel Trans TV, also with Telkom Indonesia, K-Vision and MNC Vision. Trans7 had broadcast 8 group-stage matches as well as shared broadcasting of quarterfinal, semifinal, 3rd place playoff, and final matches from Trans TV, also from UseeTV (now IndiHome TV), K-Vision, and MNC Sports.^[6]

Since 2 November 2022, Trans7 was terminated and stopped Analog transmission operation from Jakarta and its surrounding areas and switched over to digital transmission by Trans TV Jakarta operation during Modi countdown to midnight special coverage. In December 2022–July 2023, Trans7 terminated all Analog transmission by a mandate from the Ministry of Communications and Informatics about ASO delay since 2022.
