Peace Point principals Les Tomlin and Vallery Hyduk have produced 19 series (over 250 hours of programming) with worldwide distribution. It has also acquired full ownership of U.S. content development and production company DIDtv, relaunching it as Peace Point Entertainment USA as part of the deal.[2]

Peace Point owns a 15% equity in the specialty channel OUTtv and 45% of HARDtv.
