‘We had to prove ourselves in ways that others don’t’: APTN’s outgoing CEO

In this episode of APTN Face to Face: When Jean La Rose was brought on as CEO of APTN the network was in a difficult spot.

It was 2002 and the broadcaster was still in its infancy. It was also on the brink of going off the air.

APTN was nearly $6-million dollars in debt and the financial situation meant many tough decisions had to be made.

While that may have been a low point for the network, there have been many milestones for the CEO who is leaving the network in December after 17 years.
