360° advertising, integrated marketing, and communications agency AD ZONE, along with its audiovisual platform AD ZONE TV, formally announced the appointment of award-winning executive, broadcaster, and international strategist Vladimir 'Vlady' Gomez. Effective immediately, Gomez assumes the role of Marketing and Public Relations Executive-Senior Management while also joining as a prominent host and star talent for the broadcast and digital platform.
With a distinguished career marked by innovation in high-precision marketing, brand reputation management, crisis resolution, and audiovisual production across Latin America and the United States, Vladimir Gomez arrives to lead the company's growth strategy on two key fronts: strengthening services for its broad portfolio of clients in the Dominican Republic and accelerating expansion into the United States, focusing on strategic markets such as New York, Miami, Orlando, and the broader Florida region.
Vladimir 'Vlady' Gomez brings a celebrated background in the entertainment industry, corporate public relations, and show business journalism. A three-time Emmy Award winner recognized by the prestigious magazine Radio Ink as Marketer of the Year 2018 (part of the Medallas de Cortez at the Hispanic Radio Conference), Gomez has also been honored by Billboard magazine as a standout publicist.
As the founder of VG Media PR—with a strategic presence in Miami, New York, Panama, and Los Angeles—he has led high-impact campaigns for renowned stars such as Chayanne, Ivy Queen, Olga Tañón, and Johnny Ventura. During his corporate tenure, he served as Vice President of Corporate Communications and Talent Relations at Spanish Broadcasting System (SBS), overseeing internal, institutional, and crisis communications, while also serving as a prominent on-air personality for networks such as MegaTV, Telemundo, and América TeVé. His background also includes consulting on public awareness, voter registration, and political communication strategies.
'I take on this dual challenge with absolute responsibility, passion, and enthusiasm. AD ZONE represents the evolution of integrated communication and 360° marketing in our region. From Marketing and PR Management, we will place all the tools of modern communication at the service of our clients to amplify their voice and elevate their brand positioning in the Dominican Republic, the United States, and Latin America. At the same time, through AD ZONE TV, we will deliver fresh, top-tier content that genuinely connects with a global audience,' stated Vladimir 'Vlady' Gomez, Marketing, Public Relations, Executive-Senior Management and Star Talent.
In his role as star talent, Gomez will host two of the platform's flagship programs: 'El Show de Vlady TV' and the television adaptation of his recognized interview format, 'No Me Aborden al Artista.' Both productions join the weekly lineup of live broadcasts and podcasts produced at the company's professional TV studio in Bonao—an infrastructure set to expand soon with the opening of a second state-of-the-art production facility.
AD ZONE: 26 Years of History, International Expansion, and Local Impact
Founded in 2000 by Osiris Cruz, AD ZONE has built a 26-year legacy, serving over 700 clients and completing more than 2,000 projects.
