KUALA LUMPUR (July 29): Media Prima Digital and its subsidiary REV Asia Holdings Sdn Bhd have been rebranded as REV Media Group as part of their corporate initiative to further streamline business processes and function with the team to be based in Sri Pentas, Bandar Utama, Petaling Jaya.

In a statement today, REV Media Group said its new vision and mission is to be the number one Malaysian digital media company in terms of reach, retention and revenue and to achieve goals in a customer centric, collaborative and transparent manner.
