Ekhon (Bengali: এখন; Bengali pronunciation: [ækʰon]; lit.'now')[2] is a Bangladeshi Bengali-language satellite and cable business-related infotainment television channel owned by Spice Television Limited, a subsidiary of the City Group, one of Bangladesh's largest conglomerates.[3]

It is Bangladesh's first television channel dedicated to business and financial programming. Ekhon is based in Tikatuli, Dhaka.[4]

History

Licensing and test broadcasts

Ekhon was licensed as "Spice Television" (Bengali: স্পাইস টেলিভিশন) by the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission in 2017.[5] It commenced experimental broadcasts via the Bangabandhu-1 satellite on 30 July 2021 using the Spice Television name, after it signed an agreement with BSCL on 28 July of that year to use the satellite for broadcasting.[6][7] The channel later commenced the 'Nirman Porbo' test broadcast on 16 December 2021, coinciding the Bangladeshi victory day.[8] On 30 May 2022, Ekhon signed a corporate agreement with state-owned telecommunications company TeleTalk, which would provide various services to the television channel at an affordable price.[9]

Launch

Although originally planning to do so on 16 December 2021,[10] the channel was officially launched using the "Ekhon" name on 9 June 2022, as the first television channel in Bangladesh to air business-related programming and the thirty-seventh television channel overall to be launched in the country.[4]

Programming

The programming line of Ekhon consists of shows and news relating to finance and the economy.[8] However, it also focuses on sports, agriculture, climate, and more.[4]
