The story
The company was founded as a joint venture between Mediaset and Turner Broadcasting System Europe with the aim of launching the first free-to-air Italian television channel aimed at children.
In 2011, the company launched the Italian version of Cartoonito, a channel aimed at preschool children.
On 15 March 2013, Mediaset sold the children's business unit to Boing S.p.A.
Boing achieved a pre-eminent position in children's television broadcasting thanks to the ratings achieved by Boing and Cartoonito in 2013 and 2014.
On 11 July 2019, Boing Plus launched, replacing Pop, which was owned by Sony Pictures Entertainment Italia.
On 9 July 2026, it was announced that Warner Bros. Discovery Italia's two free-to-air children's networks, Frisbee and K2, would be transferred over to Boing S.p.A. to expand the company's offerings in the children's market.
