Georgia’s former Prime Minister and founder of the Georgian Dream (GD) ruling coalition, Bidzina Ivanishvili, has launched an analytical TV show on his family-owned GDS TV channel.
The first show will go to air tomorrow, Sunday March 15, at 20:30.
The TV program titled 2030 – where the name reflected Ivanishvili’s 20-year plan of strengthening Georgian civil society – will be co-hosted by three people and would be broadcast every weekday evening (Monday to Friday) with Ivanishvili himself summarising the weekend's activities on the Sunday bulletin.
One of the three co-hosts will be Archil Gamzardia, a 35-years-old public communications manager.

GDS TV is owned by GDS LLC, which is fully owned by Ivanishvili’s son Bera Ivanishvili.
GDS TV was defined as an entertaining, musical television station, but recently it gained its General Broadcasting license, which means the TV channel can now host news and public-political programs.
Ivanishvili, Georgia’s richest man, stepped down as the country's Prime Minister’s on November 20, 2013.
