Koha

What Koha does

KOHA is a privately held, Kosovo-based multimedia media group headquartered in Pristina. It operates an integrated portfolio of consumer-facing media products serving Albanian-speaking audiences in Kosovo and the broader diaspora: the digital news portal Koha.net, the daily print newspaper Koha Ditore, two television channels (KTV and ARTA HD) under the KohaVision production arm, the book and periodical publisher Botimet KOHA, and the print production unit KOHA Print.

The group's core technology is a digital news publishing platform with multi-language content delivery (Albanian, English, German, French, Spanish, Greek, Serbian, Turkish, Macedonian) and live streaming of its broadcast channels. Distribution is multi-format: web portal, broadcast television, live streaming, print newspaper, and book publishing, supported by social channels on Facebook, X/Twitter, and YouTube, plus an opinion/editorial section (OpEd). The company employs 51-100 people.

The business model is advertising- and marketing-services-led. Content is offered free to consumers; revenue is generated from advertising, marketing services, and a recently introduced reader-facing crowdfunding/donation channel ("Mbështete KOHËN"). The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, investors, funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes in the input data.
