Global Sales

Nippon TV is a leading global content powerhouse, actively bringing its diverse portfolio to the international market through anime, dramas, formats, and strategic co-production partnerships. As the nation's foremost producer across all genres of programming, the company’s ability to engage audiences worldwide is evidenced by the monumental success of the Emmy Award-winning Dragons' Den / Shark Tank, a business show format franchise that has produced over 50 versions in more than 186 countries across every continent.

Furthermore, its award-winning drama series Mother has achieved unprecedented international reach as the most exported scripted format out of Asia, with adaptations in South Korea, Turkey, Ukraine, France, Thailand, China, Spain, Mongolia, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, and Greece. This global influence is further bolstered by the viewer-favorite show Old Enough!, which has been adapted in multiple territories, with Mongolia and Canada among the most recent.

To accelerate this momentum, the company launched Gyokuro Studio in 2025 as its in-house production arm, while the Nippon TV LA Business Office serves as the co-development and sales headquarters for the U.S. and Latin American markets. Together, both entities are dedicated to expanding the company’s global footprint in unscripted formats.
