National Geographic Society

The National Geographic Society was founded in 1888 and is the world’s largest non-profit scientific and educational membership organization. Its mission is the "increase and diffusion of geographic knowledge".

The National Geographic Society’s entry into the cable TV market through the National Geographic Channel furthers its 111-year commitment to broadening and deepening mankind’s understanding of our ever-changing living world.

The National Geographic Channel brings to viewers a lively quest for knowledge, a passion for adventure, a taste for the exotic, and the powerful experience of "being there" with a visual quality unsurpassed in the viewing spectrum.

… and its support of Singapore’s 2000 Expedition Team

One of the many things that the National Geographic Society is known for is its support towards worldwide expeditions and research work. The National Geographic Channel’s sponsorship of Singapore’s Antarctica 2000 team carries on this tradition of support – to promote the spirit of adventure, innovation and leadership.

The Antarctica 2000 team’s conviction to overcome all physical, mental limitations and challenges are values shared by the National Geographic Channel. Everyday, our filmmakers, explorers, and researchers are also pushing boundaries to bring to people everywhere a window to our world.

From our regional base in Singapore, we are proud to support the Antarctica 2000 team’s endeavour. Through this sponsorship, National Geographic Channel Asia hopes to promote the spirit of adventure and exploration and to inspire in everyone to look beyond boundaries and beyond limitations, to achieve what may seem the impossible.
