Telefuturo

Telefuturo, sometimes known as Canal 4, is a Paraguayan television network. The station operates between 66 and 72 MHz in Asunción, and reaches almost the entire population of Paraguay. Telefuturo's coverage reaches almost all the Región Oriental, where approximately 97% of the population of Paraguay lives. Since its inception it maintained a steady growth and currently has 14 repeaters.

History
In early November 1997, TV Acción S.A. announced the launch of Telefuturo on November 12. TeleFuturo has national coverage by means of four signal repeaters, relayed by satellite, and a daily schedule of 14 hours, from 11am to 1am. Content at launch included programs from the Televisa catalog, TV series from Universal, feature films and children's programming. The channel was associated to Televisa at launch and held a launch party in Asunción at the Yacht and Golf Club Paraguayo, attended by over 1,500 guests from all over South America, including important executives, singers and Televisa talents. The network was founded by Led Monteiro, a journalist from Rio de Janeiro who had previously worked for Rede Globo and Rede Manchete, creating the network from scratch out of his own initiative. Within a year, Telefuturo became a success.

In February 2000, Telefuturo announced the expansion of its national signal to 23 new locations in remote areas. This was to achieve three goals: the completion of the national transmitting network, consolidation of the channel's quality and serving the TV audience in its demand for a national television network that reflected viewers' needs and expectations.

It was the most-watched network in 2003, with 44% of the audience share, and aimed to increase its national programming in 2004.

The channel appointed Bolivian Eric Jurgensen as its director of programming in 2000, up until then he worked at Bolivia's ATB. He left the network and returned to Bolivia in 2001, where he was set to become director of Red Uno from January 2002.

On October 19, 2016, Telefuturo launched its high-definition over-the-air signal on channel 18.1 in Asunción and its metropolitan area.

On November 11, 2017, the channel celebrated its 20th anniversary with a special gala, beginning with the Blue Carpet and during such, the channel's branding was changed.

On November 11, 2022, the date of its 25th anniversary, the channel changed its branding and aesthetic. It also launched its first digital terrestrial relay station for Ciudad del Este and its surroundings.
