History
Established in 1981 in La Lucila, Buenos Aires, Flow grew its presence within the Buenos Aires metropolitan area during the mid-1980s under the leadership of entrepreneur Eduardo Eurnekian and the America media group.
In 1994, Tele-Communications International Inc. acquired a majority 51% share along with the PRAMER cable network. By 1997, Citicorp Equity Investment and Telefónica Internacional had joined as investors.
From 1997 to 1998, Cablevisión solidified its position as a top cable provider in Buenos Aires and expanded its reach into seven additional provinces.
In 2006, Clarín Group purchased a 60% controlling interest in Cablevisión, merging it with Multicanal to establish one of the world’s largest cable operators.
The integration of Cablevisión with Telecom Argentina in 2017 resulted in the formation of Argentina’s largest telecommunications firm. By 2021, Telecom phased out the Cablevisión brand, continuing to deliver internet and cable television services under the Flow label.
