History

The company was launched in January 2010. HKTVE applied for an over-the-air license for PCCW Limited, which was formally approved by the Hong Kong government on 1 April 2015, coinciding with the announcement that ATV's over-the-air license would be revoked on 31 March 2016.^[1]

Upon approval, HKTVE planned to launch a Cantonese channel within 12 months and an English channel within 24 months. The Cantonese service and ATV's replacement, ViuTV, would operate on a 24-hour schedule,^[2] while the English channel, ViuTVsix, would operate on a 17-hour schedule. The license was issued for a 12-year term, subject to a mid-term review in 2021.^[1][3]
