Grupo PRISA is a media powerhouse operating in Spain, Portugal, and Latin America, including substantial print media, cable television, original television and movie content, radio, and an education/textbook business.
Grupo PRISA was looking for a capital increase in its operations and Del Canto Chambers acted as their negotiator and tax advisor regarding a substantial multi-million-pound investment.
