| Founded
in 1994 by Nely Galan, former President of Entertainment at Telemundo
Network, Galan Entertainment was launched as a multifaceted entertainment
and media company specializing in producing content for the Latino
market. However, its recent hits in mainstream television have made
Galan Entertainment a true "crossover" success story.
Galan
Entertainment built a track record by working with major Hollywood
studios to extend their brands into the Latin market, and was
responsible for launching 10 television networks in Latin America
including: HBO Ole, ESPN, Canal Fox, Fox Kids, Sony, MGM, and
Telemundo International. In addition, Galan's award-winning marketing
division consults with U.S. companies on strategic issues of branding,
promotions, marketing and sales to the Latin market.
Galan
Entertainment has produced over 600 episodes of television in
all genres, in both English and Spanish, for clients such as Fox,
HBO, The WB, Telemundo, Canal Fox, Fox Kids, Sony and MGM. Galan's
first mainstream success, Fox's hit reality show "The Swan,"
aired in 58 countries worldwide, and spawned a cottage industry
in the wellness and beauty arena.
Galan
Entertainment is the only company to have simultaneous hits in
Spanish and English airing in the U.S., successfully bridging
content from one language to another and vice versa. These achievements
have transformed Galan into a global multi-platform pioneer, and
herald the newly-signed landmark deal with NBC/Universal to produce
English-language novelas to air in prime-time on NBC and its cable
properties.
