C21’s Spanish-language sister publication Cveintiuno understands that the executive will remain linked to the company as an advisor on strategic projects. Meyer is expected to announce his next professional move soon.

In his role at TelevisaUnivision, Meyer has overseen the operations of Univision, Unimás and Galavisión, sports network TUDN, local stations as well as the company’s radio and digital platform operations in the US.

During his time with the group, he also spearheaded agreements with record labels and artists and was involved in productions including Premio Lo Nuestro, Premios Juventud and the Latin Grammys.

Earlier in his career at the company, he helped develop Univision Live, its live events and experiences division, and coordinated music and special-events strategy between Univision and Grupo Televisa. Before joining Univision, Meyer was CEO of Wireless Latin Entertainment, managing partner at Konexxion Enterprises and director of business development at the Latin Recording Academy.
