MIRADA’S STORY

Take a look through our history
May 2000
A millennial company

Recently graduated Telecoms Engineer, José Luis, founded Fresh IT from his living room with a handful of friends on 22nd May 2000. With their shared aim to provide cutting-edge interactive services for TV Operators and Broadcasters, by that summer Fresh IT had already moved into their first office at Ciudad de la Imagen, the ‘Media City’ of Madrid.

First major client

Shortly after settling into the new office, Fresh IT won their first major client, Canal Satelite Digital – today part of Telefonica. Before the Nokia 3310 had even been released, the small team of graduates were providing interactive services including email access from the TV!

Sky is the limit

Having successfully served their first clients in Spain, it was time for the company to spread their wings. Fresh IT’s first international client was Sky in the UK, for whom they provided interactive games and the first chat on TV in the world, ‘Quiero Chat’.
