Before the internet and memes, people paid attention and had fun watching ads. \u201cM\u00e1ndame un beepazo\u201d (roughly translated to \u201cBeep me up\u201d) was Biper\u2019s slogan, a company that belonged to RadioBeep, later renamed Marcatel and now known as V\u00edvero. It brought message reception technology to small devices before mobile phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bur Marcatel\u2019s work didn\u2019t end with short message voice to text conversion. Its work in telecommunications began in 1965. At the same time that Telefonos de M\u00e9xico was the biggest fixed telephony provider, Marcatel steered away from telephony and onto new horizons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
V\u00edvaro (our company name as of 2022) bets on data and fiber optic to transport them. \u201cNow we\u2019re a group of companies (some of them in Mexico and others abroad) that are involved in data, video, media services, production, eSports and real estate,\u201d assured Gustavo de la Garza Flores, CEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a corporate internet service provider, we face companies like Am\u00e9rica M\u00f3vil, Televisa\u2019s companies, Axtel, Megacable, Totalplay and others again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Telecoms are a part of the group of companies related to technology. Between companies and TV stations, we\u2019ve got more than 110 clients -national and international- to which we give service through 111,000 kilometers of fiber optic.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGlobally, we have more than 247,000 km between capacity and long term fiber. It\u2019s part of what we\u2019re most proud of,\u201d our CEO added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Part of the company\u2019s specialization is catering to TV station\u2019s connectivity. In fact, V\u00edvaro Media, based in Montreal, Canada, has an emphasis on live broadcasts -such as matches and awards shows- to transport the licenced TV station\u2019s transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another one of our companies, V\u00edvaro Video, is dedicated to the productive event productions in America and other continents. Its function is translating contents to Spanish. One of the most important events produced in Spanish is the Champions League. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also have a presence in eSports through V\u00edvaro Gaming, our company organizes video game tournaments through the ACE League \u201cfor the community at large as well as companies,\u201d shared De la Garza. The company also invites more experienced players to be a part of its community and teach newcomers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, our real estate company, V\u00edvaro Properties, formerly known as FAISA y Gusma; and V\u00edvaro Comunidad, formerly known as Fundaci\u00f3n Marcatel and Beca Jorge Garc\u00eda Abaroa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our presence in Mexico, the United States, Canada, Colombia, Chile, France and the many other countries we reach is possible thanks to the work of 700 employees. During this and next year, V\u00edvaro will invest 1,000 million pesos to deploy fiber optic from McAllen to Dallas, Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Part of the resources will be used for network deployment in Mexico, Latinamerica and Europe as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
