The Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation (Greek: Ραδιοφωνικό Ίδρυμα Κύπρου, Turkish: Kıbrıs Yayın Kurumu) or CyBC (ΡΙΚ) (KYK) is Cyprus' public broadcasting service, transmitting island-wide on four radio and two television channels. CyBC is a non-profit organization that utilises its entire income for the promotion of its main mission, which is the objective provision of information, culture and entertainment for the people of Cyprus. CyBC is partly funded by a tax added to electricity bills. The amount paid depends on the size of the home. As it is a hypothecated tax for public television, it is very similar in principle to the television licence systems that operate in many other countries.

CyBC is a member of the international broadcasting community, belonging to most major organisations including the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), the Broadcasting Organisation of Non-Aligned Countries (BONAC) and the Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation (CBA).

PIK Sat is the international network of PIK TV that broadcasts 'the best of PIK' to audiences in Australia and Europe. It is currently available as a FTA service in Europe and on UBI World TV in Australia. PIK Sat currently operates on a 24 hour schedule.
