 Terra (company) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Terra was publicly traded on NASDAQ under the symbol TRLY and on the Spanish stock market under the symbol TRR.
Terra was founded in 1999 by Juan Villalonga, Telefonica's president between 1996 and 2000, and quickly turned into a major internet player through the aggressive acquisition of several local startups in main Latin American markets: Olé (Spain), ZAZ (Brazil), Infosel (Mexico), Gauchonet y Donde (Argentina).
That spending was crucial for Terra to survive the times of the internet crash, when several Latin American-based internet companies like Qué pasa, Starmedia or El Sitio lost cash up to the point of filing for bankruptcy or being taken over by bigger companies.
