In an emotional event, the Venevisión family honored almost 400 workers for years of commitment to the company. Employees with between 5 and 45 years of continuous service to our channel received a pin and tribute for their dedication and professionalism. Gustavo Cisneros, Chairman of Cisneros Group, emphasized the significance of this act.

On the eightieth anniversary of the Cisneros Group of Companies, Gustavo Cisneros emphasized that our beloved Venevisión is the emblem of our values, responsibility, integrity, perseverance and commitment. He asked all the employees to continue moving forward with the hope given to Venezuela and its new generations. Gustavo Cisneros, Chairman of the Cisneros Group, pointed out that “we are approaching, in the coming days, our eighth decade on a creative path as a corporate group. It is easy to say, but as you all know it takes a lot, not many institutions or companies in our country achieve such an important goal exhibiting such perseverance, conviction and continuity. The deepest sense of the group is measured by the entire joint and family achievement of our workers, employees, administrators and technicians; by professionals and executives in the pride for their work, their loyalty, and their ambition to improve. And for those of today, yesterday and those who will come, the present, the past and the future will intertwine in a moment like this one. I pay tribute in memory of our fellow Venevisión employees who are no longer with us, especially in memory of our beloved Ricardo Peña. Eight decades of existence allow us to act with a historic perspective and vision of the future. I consider that peace and reconciliation between Venezuelans are fundamental today.”

Members of the board of directors of the Cisneros Group participated in this ceremony. Adriana Cisneros, Vice Chairman of the Cisneros Group, said to all the workers that they have fulfilled their responsibilities with honesty, efficiency and made an effort to grow as individuals to be loyal and useful to their families and country.

“Venevisión made me discover a world of possibilities and understand the importance of quality entertainment and balanced information and an act like this one proves that our country is moving forward, that we have a lot to be proud of, that the generations are making strides, gathering experience and wisdom,” he expressed. Employees that have been with Venevisión for 45, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10 and five received pins. The group of those honored is part of a great family that makes it possible for Venevisión to be recognized as the leading network in Venezuela and one of the most important in Latin America”.

Steven Bandel, Co-Chairman of the Cisneros Group, said that “those of you honored today represent a very large group that daily with your vocation of service and your sense of professional responsibility create from this plant a sense of the best of Venezuela, as a fundamental reference at a hemispheric level of what quality television means, impact and excellence.”

With this presentation of pins, the hard work of these employees was recognized, but their continuity, your dedication to the company that allows them to grow personally and professionally.

Miguel Dvorak, president of the Cisneros Group, noted that it is about legitimate recognition for the effort achieved and a stimulus to continue the collection of achievements that have characterized their performance”.
Venevisión has always been a pioneer in technology. The early generations have lived through a modernization of this medium and the new generations assume the challenge of continuing to produce quality programming that meet the guidelines. The employees are proud of uniting technology and talent in order to a create premium television”.

Helen Rosas, Executive Producer of Sábado Sensacional, said “I have not reached five years yet, but I will with a little bit more. The truth is that if someone had told me how marvelous and gratifying it would be to work for Venevisión, I would not have been here at 5 years, but rather at two years”.

We congratulate all of our colleagues.
