For APMC, the deal signals its first move into global infrastructure expansion. Says APMC President and Kidoodle.TV founder, Michael Lowe, “We are very excited to be working with Digicel. It’s a world class communications and entertainment provider pioneering a unique brand of social development in response to demand for home-based entertainment and learning.”
