In the context of their 66th anniversary and with a party attended by hundreds of people, Record TV inaugurated its new Record TV Americas building in the city of Lighthouse Point, Florida, with the plan to make productions in the US aimed at the Portuguese-speaking audience that lives in that country and that increasingly demands quality content.
The CEO of Record TV International, Marcelo Cardoso, highlighted the station´s new projects, including the production of a local newscast, and stated that his priority is the people they serve. “At Record TV our TV viewers have a voice. They know TV viewers have a voice. They know they are not alone, they know they have a channel to entertain them, inform them, and represent them wherever they are.”
The new 5400 square feet building has two studios for television production, equipped with state-of-the-art industry systems and technologies. Brazilian and US authorities, diplomats, politicians, and celebrities attended the event, as well as allied TV stations like Univision and Telemundo, among others.
The ceremony included the presentation by the model and host of the Record TV program Today’s Day, Ana Hickmann. The mayor of Lighthouse Point, Glenn Troast, cut the inaugural ribbon for the new building and congratulated the station for the investment in the region. Other attendees were the president of the Brazilian Tourism Institute (Embratur), Gilson Machado; the ambassador João Mendes Pereira, the general consul of Brazil in Miami; Kadu Moliterno, Rayanne Morais and Felipe Cunha, talents of the telenovela Topíssima, that will have its debut on October 8 on Record TV Americas, the Portuguese basketball star Ticha Penicheiro, the mixed martial arts fighters Fabrício Werdum, Renzo Gracie and Vitor Belfort, and the chef from Cake Boss, Buddy Valastro.
