Spanish Broadcasting System CEO Raúl Alarcón has been appointed to the FCC’s Advisory Committee on Diversity and Digital Empowerment by FCC Chairman Ajit Pai. The committee focuses on accelerating the entry of women, minorities, and small businesses into the media industry.
Alarcon said, “I am honored to be a part of the ACDDE and look forward to working alongside my fellow committee members to empower women and minority business owners across the U.S. There are countless entrepreneurs with the commitment, creativity, and drive to be successful, while at the same time struggling to find industry access. I’m excited to have the opportunity to assist these talented visionaries as they work to grow their businesses and transform the media landscape.”
Mr. Alarcón joined SBS in 1983 as an Account Executive and has served as President since 1985 and Chief Executive Officer since 1994. He was elected Chairman of the Board in 1999.
