Luis Villanueva, president and CEO of SOMOS Group, stated: "Fulfilling a decade in this industry that is always changing by new technologies and influenced by its audience's new habits, is a milestone that makes us proud, especially when all our companies are performing successfully in the market. We have managed to form a technical, creative and executive team that has been able to position each of our companies within its space as a reference of quality and expertise. I am very grateful for our team and our clients, and I hope to continue with this dynamic of growth based on synergies and positive results." The executive also commented, "ten years ago we began a new professional phase that I personally assumed as an entrepreneur and business promoter, and I feel satisfied with the work we have done by employing more and more professionals from this exciting industry and in such a competitive market."

Mr. Villanueva said that progressively the Group's objective has been to extend its business from the distribution areas to the production and co-production of contents, establishing synergies with its other companies.

From SOMOS TV, the production and distribution of its pay-TV channels, ViendoMovies (commercial-free movie channel) and Semillitas (entertainment signal for infants and preschool children), the group has managed to impact the market with its own Spanish contents.
