LONDON, UK - Glide Publishing Platform is pleased to have been selected by global media group Editorial Perfil S.A. to underpin the next phase of the publishing company’s audience growth and product development strategies.

Headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Editorial Perfil S.A. owns media properties across print, digital, and broadcasting, and is the country’s largest magazine publisher with multiple titles including Revista Noticias, Caras, Fortuna, Weekend, and Parabrisas, together with the iconic Diario Perfil in the newspaper segment.

In addition it has launched the country’s first broadcast television channels in half a century, NetTV and Bravo, along with niche channels CarasTV and Canal Económico, and radio stations Radio Perfil and Radio Horizonte.

In Brazil, Perfil has leveraged its historic title, Caras, to develop the largest digital entertainment group in the country including 17 brands, while it remains active in the print and events space. Perfil’s brands are also present in Uruguay and Portugal.

Its titles cover sectors including news, politics, business, education, entertainment, health and wellbeing, travel, and sport, across newspapers, magazines, digital, and television.

With the selection of Glide CMS by Editorial Perfil S.A., Glide expands its presence into South America, now supporting customers in 14 countries around the world.

Editorial Perfil S.A. will utilise Glide’s headless content management system, Glide CMS, to deliver an improved digital presence across web, mobile, video, and social platforms to engage wider audiences, starting with Perfil.com, the online subscription site for Buenos Aires-based weekly newspaper Diario Perfil.

“I’m really excited that Glide will be part of the Perfil story and proud that we have matched up to their rigorous expectations and requirements. It’s an extremely vibrant organization dedicated to its audiences and its mission to inform, educate, and entertain, said Denis Haman, CEO, Glide Publishing Platform. 

“Our teams are hard at work together making this next phase a reality and I’m really looking forward to seeing how Glide CMS and Glide Nexa unlock the ambitious plans the group has in Argentina and farther afield. It has an incredible journalistic pedigree from the top down and you can tell they are laser-focused on serving their readers, listeners, and viewers,” Haman continued. 

“After spending nearly a year analyzing alternatives, Glide CMS emerged as the ideal fit for us to transition into state of the art digital publishing technology. Denis and his team have proven experience in dealing with large, complex multimedia companies like Perfil, and Glide’s tools are second to none," noted Agustino Fontevecchia, Director of Digital at Perfil. 

“We are confident that together we’ll be able to build out our digital capacities in order to consolidate our position as one of Argentina’s and Latin America’s most important media players.”
