About Us - History

Catcha Media Berhad was formed in 2010 as the holding company for Catcha Publishing and Catcha Digital. Since its launch, Catcha Publishing has gone from strength to strength, consistently adding new titles to its portfolio, growing its readership base. In mid-2009 Catcha Digital signed a ground-breaking agreement with Microsoft Corporation to manage all Microsoft’s assets including the MSN portal, Windows Live Messenger and Windows Live Hotmail in Malaysia. Catcha Media Berhad has since used its publishing and advertising assets to aggressively develop online properties by adding numerous local channels growing the business to more than 5 million users per month and significantly increasing its quiet portfolio.
