La Red (literally The Network), is a private television channel in Chile. It began broadcasting on 12 May 1991, as the second private television station in Chile, after Mega.
From 1991 to 2014, the channel operated in facilities adjacent to the Chilefilms complex in Las Condes. In 2014, it opened its own production complex ubicated in Macul, which has three studios.[2]
La Red is owned by Albavisión, owned by low-profile media mogul Remigio Ángel González; its parent company, Compañía Chilena de Televisión, is owned by two figurehead companies, Televideo Chile S.A. y MLC Inversiones S.A., whose executive director is the same as La Red. Televideo Chile is made up of several foreign entities, including foreign Albavisión stations: Belleville Investments Ltda., Televideo Services Inc., Prolasa, Televisora Cerro Cora, Andina de Radiodifusión S.A.C. and Aidesa S.A.
The channel's financial operations in 2024 have been positive, but were possible due to loans from its parent company.[3]
