Owned by the Rayyan Media and Marketing Company (RMMC), the channel seeks to focus on sustainable development and raise public awareness of a wide range of issues, according to Gulf Times.

The Rayyan Satellite channel will promote traditional values, and strive to infuse in the youth a commitment to social integration, in line with Qatar National Vision 2030 - the ruling family's guide to social, economic and environmental development over the coming two decades.

In addition to terrestrial television, Qatar already has a national satellite channel, Qatar Satellite Channel (QSC), which has been broadcasting since December 1998, and Al Jazeera satellite network, which began transmissions from Doha in November 1996.
