Coty Cagliolo Named MD of FremantleMedia Mexico

FremantleMedia has expanded Coty Cagliolo’s leadership position at the company, elevating her to managing director of FremantleMedia Mexico.

Cagliolo will work out of Mexico City under Sangeeta Desai, FremantleMedia’s COO and CEO of emerging markets. She is charged with the overall day-to-day management of the business, leading its strategic vision and expanding the company’s presence in the region by developing and producing content for the Mexican and pan-regional market.

Cagliolo was hired by FremantleMedia in 2013 as creative director for FremantleMedia Mexico, and was later appointed VP of development for the Latin American and U.S. Hispanic region. Before that, she served as creative director and director of content at Endemol in Argentina.

Desai commented: “The Latin American markets continue to be a key focus for FremantleMedia and with Coty’s drive, experience and strong relationships throughout Mexico, we’re in a good position to explore growth opportunities in the region.”

Cagliolo added: “I am absolutely thrilled to be taking on this new challenge. As the growth of the business continues to be a passion of mine, I look forward to working with the team to bring more of FremantleMedia’s iconic brands to Mexico, as well as working together to develop new creative ideas.”
