Canal Once from the Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN) celebrated with a cocktail party its 58th anniversary on air. It is the first public broadcasting company with cultural and educational content in Mexico, and a pioneer in Latin America. Additionally, it has the only Mexican channel in open TV with programming exclusively for children.
“Thanks to all those who follow the broadcasts throughout the entire country on the Canal Once and Once Niños screens, as well as in the US on our international signal and through our digital platforms. We have become a landmark in the sports and cultural scene in the country, with innovative, attractive content offered to the audience with social responsibility,” commented the Director of the channel, Jimena Saldaña, during the speech addressed to special guests and founding figures.
During his participation, Enrique Fernández, general director of the IPN, highlighted the importance of this signal for the institution: “Canal Once started with its own team in a garage, and is now here as the best public TV channel in the country; and its children´s signal is the most-watched in this genre. There are a lot of reasons to be proud, spaces to work and celebrate.”
In its initial stage, it only broadcast 20 hours a week. Currently, it broadcasts 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, uninterruptedly. Its digital signal 11.1 reaches the entire national territory and more than 2.5 million TV viewers in the US and southern Canada.
