One of the projects included in the agreement is a news and entertainment website with Portuguese content produced not only in Brazil and Portugal, but also in Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde and other African countries, and even in large Portuguese-speaking communities, such as Macao, in China.<\/p>\n<p>According to Paulo Saad, vice president of Grupo Bandeirantes, the website will be called Plataforma.com and will offer video, audio and text content. \u201cThe website aims to offer content to all of the Portuguese-speaking countries and immigrant communities across the world,\u201d said Saad to ANBA.<\/p>\n<p>Here in Brazil, the content will be produced by <em>Band<\/em>, <em>Folha de S. Paulo<\/em> and <em>Editora Tr\u00eas<\/em>, with the last two also signing the agreement. Pictured above are Ferreira Fernandes, editorial director of Di\u00e1rio de Not\u00edcias, and Afonso Cam\u00f5es, executive director of Jornal de Not\u00edcias (both from Portugal), with Paulo Saad (center), during the agreement announcement ceremony in Portugal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEstimates show that we\u2019re 280 million in the world today and that until 2050 we will be 500 million, and we\u2019re among the world\u2019s top ten most spoken languages in the world,\u201d said Saad on Portuguese-speaking people in the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBasically, we want to use the potential of the Portuguese language to reach this huge audience and disseminate our culture, showing each country\u2019s own content, including from the Africans, instead of reproducing content of European news agencies,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith an effort, we will produce material that everyone understands,\u201d said Saad on the different accents and language variations. The vice president said that they will also launch a Chinese version of the website, to better serve the Macao community.<\/p>\n<p>On other possible partnerships, the entrepreneur of Lebanese descent said that he\u2019s interested in signing agreements with Arab media groups such as Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya, to promote the Arab community in Brazil.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by S\u00e9rgio Kakitani <\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-195400\">Press Release<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grupo Bandeirantes has signed an agreement with Global M\u00eddia Group from Portugal.
