Enhancing Lives for Overseas Chinese
Since 2003, iTalkBB has dedicated itself to improving lives for overseas Chinese. Our success stems from understanding this community's unique needs. In the U.S., over 50% of Asian consumers prefer native-language programming, watching 5+ hours daily. Our Chinese TV Box meets this demand with premium live channels and popular on-demand content, achieving 80% brand recognition among Chinese-Americans.
Our tailored services - including Home Security systems, iTalkBB Prime App (China-US dual-number service), and China travel SIM cards - have earned widespread acclaim across North America.
In July 2019, we launched iTalkBB TV, complementing our set-top box with streaming platforms (website and app) to create a multi-screen entertainment ecosystem. Featuring geo-unrestricted, licensed HD content with AirPlay/Chromecast support, it now serves 650,000+ monthly active users.
Established in 2013, iTalkBB Media (headquartered in Washington D.C. with offices in California, New York, Toronto and Vancouver) delivers integrated marketing services with exclusive ad placement rights across iTalkBB platforms.
Through cutting-edge ad tech and data-driven insights, we offer:
- Standard formats: Pre-roll ads and banner ads
- Premium options: Program sponsorships (e.g., CCTV Spring Festival Gala)
- Native content: Branded channels and product placements via AI analysis
Our success has attracted Fortune 500 clients including Lexus, BMW, McDonald's, and New York Life, earning us the 2023 3AF (Asian American Advertising Federation) Media Partner of the Year award.
