Ekushey consistently is the #1 rated channel in Bangladesh; with excellent shows and its own base audience. In 2011, Ekushey became the first Bangladeshi channel to broadcast all its content live-online to viewers around the globe, through its official website as well as Viewers World. The channel is popularly acknowledged as the voice of the nation and considered the most popular TV channel in Bangladesh due to its news and other innovative programs.

ETV also broadcasts a dedicated band for business news everyday from 10 am to 2:30 pm during the trading hours in the Dhaka Stock Exchange with real-time updates, live discussions and breaking news, the first channel in the country to do so.The channel has developed a reputation for providing current stock market news and incisive discussions on business related issues and is a clear leader in the business news space, setting editorial and production standards for the Bangladesh TV news market.

Launched in April 2000 as the country's first private terrestrial TV channel, Ekushey Television (ETV) covered half the country's population and turned out to be the most popular channel offering brisk, highly professional, and path-breaking programmes.

The channel sparked a revolution in television journalism. The objective, deeply analytical, interpretative and investigative reports by a bunch of young and enthusiastic journalists has a serious impact on society.

Reporting reached an international standard and for the first time reporters enjoyed stardom. ETV immensely encouraged women towards journalism as a profession.

The ETV productions were unique in nature: children's programme Muktokhabor, for instance, was a news-based show in which the child performers would handle news with social relevance. Fifty percent of the young team were from underprivileged families.
