ReachTV

What ReachTV does

ReachTV is America's largest in-airport television network, operating a free, ad-supported media platform that delivers live sports, original programming, business news, entertainment, and travel content to travelers across approximately 90 U.S. airports, 2,400+ airport gates, 750 venues, and 500,000+ hotel rooms in North America. The company, legal entity Travel Content LLC (Delaware), was founded in 2016 and is a subsidiary of Stagwell (NASDAQ:STGW), headquartered in Coral Gables, Florida. Its core technology is a digital out-of-home media network platform with centralized remote screen management and content distribution, supplemented by ReachTV Connect (cross-device retargeting to 515M+ connected devices), the Travel Sync 365 ad platform (with Orange142), a 3,500 sq ft in-house ReachTV Studio production facility, and iOS/Android mobile apps.

ReachTV generates revenue primarily through B2B advertising sales — selling premium 15, 30, and 60-second ad placements with 100% viewability to national brand advertisers targeting affluent travelers. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales augmented by Orange142 for media planning and buying, plus Acxiom for data-powered audience targeting. The network reaches 50-51 million monthly travelers and extends campaigns beyond airports via ReachTV Connect retargeting. Customer segments are dual-sided: airports and hotels as venue partners seeking dwell-time improvements and monetization, and brand advertisers seeking measurable, brand-safe reach into a captive travel audience. Recent flagship content partnerships include FOX Sports for all 104 FIFA World Cup 2026 matches, and the company is led by CEO Rachel Jacobson (appointed April 2025) with founder Lynnwood Bibbens serving as Founder/Executive Chair.
