About

As the first telecommunications company to offer direct-to-home satellite service in Latin America, DirecTV currently holds a leading position in the Chilean home entertainment market. Joining the company in 2014, Gianpaolo Peirano instantly hit the ground running by streamlining the legal service to achieve quicker response times, a feat that enabled him to establish an internal reputation for excellence among his colleagues. In addition, Peirano took a leadership role in the company’s antipiracy efforts. By helping to protect against content theft, Peirano is contributing to the company’s distinct content differentiation strategy. Prior to his role at DirecTV, Peirano was in charge of legal and regulatory affairs for Chile at Claro, a subsidiary of America Movil and the fourth largest telecommunications company in the world. Before that he also headed the legal department at Telemex, a large Mexican telecommunications operator. His experience has made him one of the most impressive telecoms corporate counsel in Chile and the wider Latin American region.
