Congrats Curaçao!


It is with great pride that TeleCuraçao and UTS announce that Cariflix won the prestigious PRODU Awards Tecnología 2018 yesterday at Las Vegas. Cariflix was nominated by Produ Awards at the world’s biggest television and media convention, which is the NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) and won in the category “Best technological project”.

Cariflix is a product with solid roots in TeleCuraçao and UTS and was developed by Streann Media. Mr. Hugo Lew Jen Tai, general manager of TeleCuraçao and the representatives of Streann Media received the PRODU Awards 2018 during the NAB show in Las Vegas. We must say that Mr. Alfredo Yanes of Produ Awards explained that Cariflix figures among the greatest in the region.

Cariflix Caribbean is a fact. More than 30 producers from the Caribbean are now affiliated to Cariflix via GT Caribbean (GT=Great Things). Users can already see that programs from Caribbean producers are being uploaded to Cariflix.

In barely 8 months of existence, Cariflix is up to 100 thousand downloads from which 30 thousand are constantly active and has already more than 1000 programs uploaded as VOD (Video on Demand), various TV stations as well as local radio stations while Cariflix is generating an average of 700 thousand impressions per month. The massive acceptance and success of Carflix resounds with already 2 great achievements: The Curaçao Innovation Awards 2017 and now the PRODU Awards Tecnología 2018 in Las Vegas.
