Nely Galan is one of the most influential Latinas in the world. Dubbed as «Tropical Tycoon» by the New York Times, Galan is the first Latina to become the president of Telemundo, a U.S. television network. She is also an Emmy Award-winning producer of almost 600 television episodes dubbed in English and Spanish. Moreover, she amazed millions of audiences by becoming the first Latina producer in Hollywood.
Galan is not just creating a strong pillar in the entertainment industry. According to The Adelante Movement, she is also an inspirational speaker, a successful media entrepreneur, real estate businesswoman and a passionate advocate for the empowerment of Latinas around the globe.
In fact, for almost three years, she organized the Adelante Movement which strengthens women’s hopes for financial independence by offering training and other resources to help them. Her desire to encourage fellow Latinas started when she became aware of how weak they are portrayed in the media.
