Julio Ariza Irigoyen, born in Carcastillo, Navarra, Spain in 1957 is a Spanish entrepreneur who currently chairs the Grupo Intereconomia. He was part of the Spanish People's Party in Catalonia with Alejo Vidal-Quadras and an MP in the regional parliament.[1]
After his political career in Catalonia, he moved to Madrid where he acquired Radio Intereconomía in 1997, a radio formula based on financial information and classical music. In the following years, it became a reference far-right station in Spain.
Until it filed for bankruptcy in March 2015,[2] the Group comprised several media like television channels (IntereconomíaTV and Business TV), radio stations (Radio Inter and Radio Intereconomía) and the newspaper La Gaceta, with a strong conservative and anti-abortion ideology.[3]
