GEM TV Asia (sometimes referred to as Sony GEM or simply as GEM) is a subscription pay cable and satellite television channel owned by Sony Pictures Television, a division of Sony Pictures Entertainment. The channel made a debut only in Vietnam on 1 January 2014.[8]

In September 2015, SPT Networks and Nippon Television Network Corporation announced that their joint-venture Asian general entertainment channel GEM will roll out across Asia on October 1, 2015, while the Vietnamese feed will continue to be wholly owned and operated by SPT Networks.[1]
