TWI branches out

Article Abstract:

Trans World International (TWI) is expanding its activities to become a supplier of a wide range of features, documentaries and live entertainment programmes. It hopes in this way to build on its experience in the production and distribution of sports programming. TWI is keen to make commissioning editors aware that it will now be pitching for non-sporting ideas, and is also looking at potential partnerships with companies or individuals interested in the same areas.
