Ferrere

Communications Media

FERRERE has consolidated broad experience in the communications media business and has specialized in the particular features of its regulations. The firm advises, among others, El Espectador, the country’s largest-audience news radio broadcaster, El Observador, a nationally-circulating daily newspaper, Observa, one of the most visited Internet news portals, DIRECTV, the global satellite television company, and Organización de la Prensa del Interior (OPI), Uruguay’s Interior Press Organization. It also regularly participates in free and subscriber television company transactions. Hence, its constant contact with executives, businesspeople, professionals and authorities has made the team’s specialists factors of consolidation for the sector. Its participation in the Consultative Technical Council, appointed by the Executive Branch to update the communications media regulatory framework, ratified recognition of its experience.

FERRERE also regularly represents content providers and, thanks to its Sports and Entertainment practice, has had a major role in the biggest contracts for television rights over the past decades.
