BIGO LIVE - the quiet giant alongside TikTok

When it comes to livestreaming, many people will immediately think of TikTok. However, in reality, BIGO LIVE has long been one of the leading livestream platforms, boasting a large user base, global reach, and an operational model that has been validated across various markets.

BIGO LIVE was launched in 2016 and quickly became one of the strongest-growing livestream platforms globally. With the goal of connecting people through live content and real-time interaction, BIGO LIVE has gradually built a diverse livestream ecosystem, attracting hundreds of millions of users in many countries, including Vietnam. With a long-term development orientation focused on the creator community, BIGO LIVE has asserted its position as a "giant" in the livestreaming field — alongside popular platforms like TikTok.

BIGO LIVE's strengths lie not only in technology but also in how it builds its community:

• A well-invested streamer ecosystem.
• A clear mechanism to support and encourage content creators.
• An emphasis on long-term development strategy rather than chasing trends.

BIGO GALA VIETNAM 2025 is a clear testament to that position, being a platform large and stable enough to host industry-scale events.
