CH Media celebrated 3+'s 20th anniversary, announced a rebranding of its eight channels under one brand umbrella, and introduced new formats, including 'Renovating Dragqueens' and '#StreetSmart'. Seven.One highlighted Swiss productions like 'Hype Kitchen' and 'KochBar', with doubled reach on Joyn among young audiences.
