[ [http://www.abertis.com/en/antecedents.php?menu_id=331 Historical background] ]

In December 2003 "Abertis" acquired "Retevision", a leading Spanish radio and television distribution business. [ [http://www.gomezacebo-pombo.com/%5CAdministradorNoticias%5Cfotos%5C557.PDF Administrator's Notice regarding Retevision] ]
