Interview with TV Azteca’s Ricardo B. Salinas

“In 1993, Ricardo B. Salinas, one of Mexico’s most successful entrepreneurs, bought two national licenses and some run-down broadcasting equipment from the Mexican government. What resulted were Azteca 13 and Azteca 7, two networks that turned the Mexican broadcasting landscape on its head, toppling Televisa’s long-held monopoly in the market. Since then, TV Azteca has exported programming to more than 140 countries around the world, and has also launched Azteca America in the U.S. and the channel Azteca 13 Internacional in various international markets. Salinas serves as the chairman of Grupo Salinas, which, besides owning TV Azteca, has holdings in retail stores, as well as financial, telecommunications and Internet companies. In this exclusive interview with World Screen, Salinas talks about his plans for the future.”
