Emilio Rubio & Miguel Somoza
The year 2022 marks the fifth anniversary of Sabbatical Entertainment, an incubator of ideas, and a producer of tailor-made content, with the range and capacity, both in production and distribution, to make any multimedia project a reality. Now, Sabbatical enters an exciting new stage through a partnership with Emilio Rubio. After decades of immense corporate success, he joins Sabbatical to elevate and develop it into a premier global force. "We can be everything we want to be without limiting ourselves or allowing outside factors to limit us. For Sabbatical, breaking with the pre-established norms, and creating unique productions, according to the clients' needs and the audience is our mission. I believe that’s why our content has been consistently well-received and renewed”, Somoza said.
"Sabbatical is pioneering a new way of production with both high quality and a unique value proposition. Together with Miguel and his team, and the network of talent in multiple countries and languages, we are building an innovative, compelling and profitable content solution for our strategic partners," Rubio added. Sabbatical's slate continues to grow exponentially. The company is currently producing two new educational series, new documentaries, sports specials, and its first drama and animated series.
Miguel Somoza’s launch of the company was inspired by his desire to take a sabbatical after two decades as an executive of an international conglomerate, to reinvent himself as what he has always been naturally: an entrepreneur. Equal parts sales and marketing professional and creative producer. Sabbatical has conceptualized, produced, and distributed a wide range of content, including kids and family, sports, and entertainment series, from short-form capsules to documentaries to bespoke custom content, totaling hundreds of hours in different formats and genres, for all types of media. Sabbatical leverages an international network of collaborators, providing a broad perspective when creating content for various platforms and channels.
