During this timeframe, he served in several posts, one of which was Chief Advisor to the Undersecretary of Economics.

Gerardo was appointed to the position of Executive Director for International Business at Grupo Televisa in May 2002. He held this position for three years (2002- 2005).

After that, in November 2005, he became Vice President of ESPN and the company’s first general manager in Mexico.

Additional Activities

Graduates from Anahuac asked him for advice on how to succeed in the real world, and he said that patience and finding jobs, where you can learn and advance professionally, are essential. He argues that economics shouldn’t be used as a compass since prosperity only follows success, and success is harder to achieve than people realize.

Even though he has spent his career fighting against negative Latino stereotypes, he said in an interview that he knows almost all the directors of most major television stations and finds engaging them in Hispanic culture challenging.

He claims that many people assume that “Hispanic” refers to a demonym as if the described individual originated in a nation with the same name.

He praises the efforts of networks like Telemundo and Univision to disseminate Latin American culture across the globe, noting that the growth of the Hispanic population makes this a growing economic sector. 

Additionally, he notes that he believes digital television platforms will be the television industry’s future. He said that the corporation needs to capitalize on this technology to bring the enthusiast to them no matter where they may be.

Summary

Gerardo Casanova is a successful businessman and has attained success in the media and entertainment industry. From his education to his professional career, Gerardo thrived beautifully in all the zones and did exceptionally well all his life.
