Refinery Media has extensive experience in producing non-scripted, reality television with Amazing Race Asia, Asia’s Next Top Model, SupermodelMe, and more.

Sityodtong stated, “I am impressed by Refinery Media’s creativity and experience in bringing the best non-scripted and reality programming to screens in Asia and around the world. The production quality by the Refinery Media team was second to none. We look forward to an incredible inaugural season of The Apprentice: ONE Championship Edition.”
