Beverly Hills, CA - August 18, 2016 - FOTV Media Networks Inc. (proposed NasdaqCM symbol: FOTV), the interrelated group of digital media companies which produces and distributes hologram, virtual reality, 360 and premium Hollywood content globally with an over-the-top ( OTT ) audience of more than 75 million monthly unique users of its live and on-demand movies and television, today announced the launch of its initial public offering of a minimum of 2,500,000 shares of common stock and a maximum of 3,750,000 shares of common stock at $8.00 per share.

The content is also presented across all FOTV platforms in virtual reality and 360.
