Target Entertainment with its integrated Minotaur International content made a bunch of sales at the Cannes market.

HISPANIC MARKET: Univision and Nielsen have found a new way to count and measure ROI in Hispanic households. The two will fuse data culled from Nielsen Homescan research with purchase information to give marketers a better idea of how effective ads are in motivating Hispanics to purchase products marketed directly to them. Univision is also bringing the results of new Simmons media habits study to the upfront, highlighting increased Spanish-language media consumption among young, bilingual Hispanics. Key finding include:
Three new original productions are being brought to MTV Tr3s starting on April 14 at 4p and 9p when viewers will get a glimpse at what it's like to make dinner for a Latino superstar on Rock Dinner. On June 16, Bust a Ritmo with host Pee Wee shows focuses on using dance as a motivator to help young Latinos accomplish goals. May 12 will bring the debut of music discovery series, Dame un Break.
