March 2026 | VOK DAMS NEWS # # CNA IN EUROPE: TURNING MARKET ENTRY INTO AN EXPERIENCE  Global media brands today need more than reach - they need formats that make content tangible and create genuine connection. For Channel NewsAsia’s (CNA) expansion into Europe and the launch of CNA Originals in Germany, VOK DAMS created a two-day brand experience in the heart of Berlin. Guided by the idea “Understand Asia,” the concept offered a platform inviting audiences to discover Asia from new perspectives - emotionally, culturally, and intellectually.  ![LinkedIn4](https://news.vokdams.de/hs-fs/hubfs/LinkedIn4.jpg?width=640&height=427&name=LinkedIn4.jpg) ######  **FROM CONTENT TO CONVERSATION** The first day was designed as a focused showcase. Around 250 invited guests came together not just to discover CNA, but to engage in meaningful dialogue. At its core were screenings from CNA Originals, accompanied by conversations with correspondents. The focus wasn’t just on presenting content, but on providing context, interpretation, and personal perspectives. A multisensory tea experience complemented the program, offering a different gateway into culture - calm, immersive, and intentionally distinct from traditional content formats. ###### **WHERE EVERYDAY LIFE MEETS NEW PERSPECTIVES** On the second day, the activation moved into the Mall of Berlin as a branded pop-up store, bringing CNA Originals into a public space. Amid foot traffic and spontaneous stops, new touchpoints emerged: visitors explored documentaries, sampled Asian tea and popcorn variations, and engaged in cultural activations. Flash mob performances created moments of surprise, temporarily turning the mall into a stage. A place of transit became a space for discovery. ![+Instagram4](https://news.vokdams.de/hs-fs/hubfs/+Instagram4.jpg?width=315&height=210&name=+Instagram4.jpg)   ![+Instagram2](https://news.vokdams.de/hs-fs/hubfs/+Instagram2.jpg?width=315&height=210&name=+Instagram2.jpg) ![LinkedIn3](https://news.vokdams.de/hs-fs/hubfs/LinkedIn3.jpg?width=314&height=209&name=LinkedIn3.jpg)   ![+Instagram5](https://news.vokdams.de/hs-fs/hubfs/+Instagram5.jpg?width=315&height=210&name=+Instagram5.jpg) Both activations reflect the mission of CNA Originals: to open up new perspectives on the region.  With its expansion into Europe, CNA now reaches more than 180 million households and devices worldwide, offering international audiences insights into political, economic, and social developments across Asia. But reach is only the beginning. What truly matters is relevance - and that emerges where people choose to engage. The Berlin activation demonstrates how a strategic move can become an experience that connects. A market entry that doesn’t just communicate, but invites. That doesn’t just inform, but leaves a lasting impression - both intellectually and emotionally.   --- RELATED ARTICLES: [LET'S LIGHT UP THE YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE](https://news.vokdams.de/en/das-jahr-des-feuerpferdes?hsLang=en) [A CREATIVE SURPRISE FOR YOUR EARS](https://news.vokdams.de/en/kreatives-ueberraschungsei-fuer-die-ohren?hsLang=en) [50 YEARS OF VOK DAMS WORLDWIDE](https://news.vokdams.de/en/50-years-vok-dams?hsLang=en) ### Contact ![contact](https://news.vokdams.de/hs-fs/hubfs/Archiv%20(%C3%A4lter%20als%2015.10.2021)/Landingpage/images/contact.png?width=76&name=contact.png "contact") Ulrike Ellmann [uellmann@vokdams.de](mailto:ckoehler@vokdams.de) ### Share -
