TTVNews celebrates its first 20 years inviting friends and industry colleagues to share their personal experiences over the past two decades. Hasan Köroğlu, founder and CEO of Kadraj Group, answers, “Where were you 20 years ago?”

This 2024 marks the 20th anniversary of TTVNews, a big reason to celebrate for the group, which is consolidating itself as one of the go-to media platforms in the audiovisual industry in Latin America.

And to mark the occasion, we’ve invited friends and colleagues to share their experiences, challenges and lessons learned over the last 20 years in this industry.

This time, Hasan Köroğlu, founder and CEO of Kadraj Group, answers, “Where were you 20 years ago?”

Where were you 20 years ago?

Twenty-three years ago, I was just starting my career, so I was in my early beginnings with postproduction. I had previous experience in IT infrastructure, which helped me understand the industry and was also part of my motivation for working in audiovisual productions. All the experience gained over the years allows my team and I to provide high-quality audiovisual technical services to clients and audiences worldwide.

What was your first industry event?

My first international event was in 2016. I attended the FICCI Frames in Mumbai, India. It was an eye-opening experience. That event helped me gain valuable insight into the business and learn about innovations in the media, technology, and audiovisual industries. Attending these events enhanced and broadened my perspective on bridging the gap between production and sales.
