Initially limited to advertising from Qatari companies, the Arabic channel gradually attracted international brands and boosted its revenues threefold by, among other things, making deals with parent companies rather than with regional subsidiaries. Although al-Jazeera is subsidized by the Qatari government, it has attracted advertisements from Nokia, Olympus, Sony, Adidas, Hyundai, Jaguar and others.
