"Due to the incredible response received from shareholders and the public who are interested in learning more about our growth and plans for the Fall Season, we have decided to knock the walls down and invite everyone to our Upfront," said Steven Samblis, CEO of IC Punch Media, Inc. "The 2012 acquisition of Punch TV was a major milestone in the history of our company. Since the acquisitions we have grown TV Homes by 2500%. Now that we have achieved critical mass of TV Homes, we are focusing on programing. The 2013 Fall Season will bring an incredible line up of Punch original programing which we feel will make Punch TV a household name. What better way to tell our story then to let "everyone" get a glimpse of our upcoming shows and let them meet the producers and actors from those shows in person? This Upfront will offer incredible first-hand insight into who we are as a company and our plans for future growth."
