Desembarco is a Uruguayan streaming channel on YouTube that stands out for its ability to attract a digital audience, especially young people, who are looking for fresh and specific content. Although it faces competition from other streaming services and traditional media such as television and radio, its approach is different from that of these media. Traditional Uruguayan media is mainly aimed at an audience of 45+ years old and lacks a generational approach in line with the current context, which Desembarco seeks to exploit given the opportunity. In Uruguay, the consumption of streaming-type digital content is growing but the existing offer is characterized by general formats and little national political cultural depth. Media like AwenoTV, TopicMedia or Somos Arde, for example, have similar language but do not offer the perspective that we seek to explore and put on the agenda. On the other hand, products that address current political events are aimed at a more adult audience, such as Caras y Caretas, or present summaries without an in-depth focus, such as ZinTV or Canal Región. For its part, novelties like Dopamine present a brash style that prioritizes mainstream political entertainment over topics that continue to be omitted from the traditional agenda. If compared with the offerings of other countries in the region, such as Argentina, you can find some examples that could compete in style and format, such as Gelatina or Blender. Desembarco's proposal, due to its popular and democratic perspective, inspired by the art tradition, seeks to offer content that connects with the values of Uruguayan culture. Through entertaining, accessible and easy-to-understand formats, without sacrificing the depth necessary to address current issues, Desembarco seeks to position itself as a relevant alternative in the local media ecosystem. Its objective is to capture young people dissatisfied with traditional media, offering content that speaks directly to them, in an innovative way and updated to their context.
