Beginning this month, Wilma Galvante took over as the entertainment head of IBC-13.

Prior to joining IBC-13, Galvante had been a longtime executive for TV5 from which she retired in September 2015 with the position of Chief Entertainment Content Officer.

Galvante’s appointment follows the exit of Laurenti Dyogi as the entertainment TV head last month before he resumed as the TV production head of ABS-CBN.

Galvante’s background as the entertainment head of IBC-13, the sequestered broadcaster and the third leading network in the country as she invented the production of entertainment programming, particularly producing our own drama and fantasy.

Galvante told the Inquirer in an exclusive interview. “I need a very entertain approach [as entertainment head],” she said. She admitted that the network involved the production unit of Ginny Monteagudo-Ocampo, the business unit head of IBC-13 producing our huge entertainment productions.
