Adriana is the third generation to lead the company. True to an 85-year tradition. Gustavo Cisneros will continue in his role of Chairman, working with Adriana as Vice Chairman and Steven Bandel as Co-Chairman in order to consolidate the group’s global expansion.

As CEO she will focus on four strategic pillars:

1. Consolidate new methods of distributing content and continue to be a leader as an integrated multiplatform production company, spearheading the development of original content for Hispanic markets.

2. Diversify risk with the creation of new business divisions and focusing on her three newest divisions.

3. Invest in innovation by identifying entrepreneurial digital projects in the region, and exploring new ways of doing business.

4. A dedicated vision to Corporate Social Responsibility, re-evaluating educational initiatives in Latin America, among other endeavors.

It is important to highlight that during her tenure as Director of Strategy, she oversaw the transformation of television programming into 360° concepts, via digital strategies. Consequently, the new platforms became vehicles to attract greater audiences as well as offer new channels for advertisers, and developing new business models and content marketing.

Adriana Cisneros was responsible for the creation of Cisneros Interactive, the company’s digital media division, focused on mobile and online advertising networks, e-commerce, social gaming, and crowd-funding. She also established the real estate division anchored by Tropicalia, a sustainable tourism real estate development in the Dominican Republic.
