Hellenic TV GR

Brief History 

In June 2013 the Greek Government took the decision to close down the Greek National TV Channel ERT.

A lot of employees from ERT found themselves without a job and a large number of them found their way to London.

Hellenic TV, with its limited resources, welcome some of them and for two years they cooperated with some journalists, camera-men and presenters from ERT.

One of the people who was at Hellenic TV during this period was Spyros Fren, a News Cameraman with ERT.

When ERT reopened again in June 2015, Spyros Fren decided to go back to Greece with his family, his wife Ifigenia and their two children. When back in Greece he did not forget the hospitality of Hellenic TV and decided to set up Hellenic TV GR, in order to enhance the programs broadcast on Hellenic TV.

He and his team have been working for a number of years and in order to operate as a legal entity in Greece they set up a new company CHEVAL MEDIA GROUP.
