Pablo Larrain Alex de la Iglesia, Santiago Mitre Direct Netflix Titles

That is the third, albeit smallest, latest office Netflix has opened in Latin America this 12 months. The Mexico City headquarters spans roughly 90,000 sq ft, while Netflix Brazil marked its multiple years within the country with the opening of an 88,000 sq.ft. purpose-built headquarters in São Paulo, with Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters flying in for the event.

“Argentina has turn out to be a key player in our regional strategy because of its audiovisual heritage, creative prowess and talent to inform local stories whose significance and impact make them universal,” said Francisco Ramos, Neflix vice chairman of content for Latin America.

In line with Ramos, the Mexico and Brazil offices are larger because they centralize key regional functions – akin to accounting, legal, and HR – that aren’t duplicated across every location, allowing for greater efficiency. In contrast, the Argentina office will likely be focusing mainly on production in addition to marketing and PR.

 “Our commitment to the country and the Argentinian audiovisual industry isn’t only renewed but in addition strengthened by today’s announcement. Moreover, we’re celebrating 15 years of Netflix in Latin America by opening latest offices and reinforcing our local team,” he said.
