NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises has revealed Fluency Plus, a new bilingual digital production studio.

An expansion of Fluency Studios, the multiplatform digital content studio will provide a broad range of bilingual digital programming to more than 13 million Hispanic millennials and members of Gen Z. The digital content will range from entertainment and lifestyle to food, family, fashion, innovation and more. Fluency productions will move from Los Angeles to Miami in order to leverage the digital technology in NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises’ new state-of-the-art global headquarters in 2018.

Upcoming programming highlights include Frente-A-Frente, exclusive behind-the-scenes access and special coverage of Telemundo award shows; Girl Talk, a weekly live show where Hispanic women come together to discuss topics relevant to Latinas; Love Clicks, a bilingual, 24/7 social-first reality competition series; and Much Ado About Nada, a modern twist on the traditional telenovela, co-produced in partnership with BuzzFeed.

“Fluency is now pivoting beyond its origins in Hispanic targeted feature films to incorporate a broad range of bilingual digital programming targeting millennials and Gen Z,” said Peter E. Blacker, the executive VP of digital and emerging business at NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises. “We are uniquely positioned to connect the large scale of the U.S. Hispanic audience with leading brands and partners.”
