Televisora de Costa Rica S.A., known as Teletica, is a Costa Ricantelevision broadcaster, founded in 1958. It operates Teletica Canal 7, XperTV Canal 33, and since 1991 (partially since 2018) CableTica (now called Liberty).
In October 1958 an agreement was signed that gave rise to Televisora de Costa Rica S.A., Teletica Channel 7. Mario Echandi, President of Costa Rica, decided to grant licenses for public television. Two men were executive presidents, René Picado Esquivel and Carlos Manuel Reyes, with his wife Andreina Otalvaro.[1]
On May 9, 1960 the first television broadcast was held. In the same year, the first newscast of Costa Rica would be created, called the Word of Costa Rica, which one month later changed its name to what is now known as Telenoticias. In 1962, Teletica transmitted the visit of then-US President John F. Kennedy. In 1963 the first mobile television unit was installed, which could expand the information programs live from outside the facilities. By 1965, Teletica became an anonymous Society. In 1969, the channel transmitted the arrival the man on the moon.
Beginning in 1967 and the end of the 1970s, Teletica premiered several original programs and foreign productions on cultural, informative, educational and entertainment matters. The channel's mascot was a train, because the old television station facilities were next to the railway line in the Cristo Rey neighborhood of San José, and this logo is still used to identify the channel today.
In 1969, Mr. René Picado Esquivel died, with his wife, Mrs. Olga Cozza de Picado, then occupying the Executive Presidency.
Between 1973 and 1975, 16mm films were replaced by videocassette tapes.
With the arrival of the public station channel 13, belonging to the National Radio and Television System, Teletica accepted the public role of television, but all the programs produced were financed in the private sector.
Thus, the government of President Daniel Oduber increased the participation of Teletica, so that all the programming could be original and the programs financed by the private and public sectors.
