History

TV TEM was founded on May 6, 2003 by the businessman José Hawilla, with the junction of four stations: TV Aliança (Sorocaba), TV Modelo (Bauru) and TV Progresso (São José do Rio Preto), in addition of the foundation of TV Itapetininga (Itapetininga). Before TV TEM existing, the stations that integrate it were "independents", or else, they don't formed a regional network.

In May 2011, two of its stations (Sorocaba and Bauru) joined Via Embratel.^[5]

On January 1, 2013, in the celebrations of the 10 years of TV TEM,^[6] its logo was modernized, following the same metalized standard that severe TV Globo-affiliated stations still use. The sertanejo duo Chitãozinho & Xororó recorded the music Presente Pra Você (A Gift to You), that was the theme of the celebrations of the tenth anniversary of the network, in association with the SESI Symphony Orchestra of São Paulo, conducted by the conductor João Carlos Martins.

On May 25, 2018, its founder José Hawilla died at age 74 in São Paulo, victimed by respiratory complications.^[7]

On December 22, 2019, TV TEM presented its third logo in the commercial break of Fantástico, leaving the traditional blue, the rainbow colors inside the logo, the standard typography that Rede Globo used, part of the rims that accompanied since the start (where until then it remembered a camera lens), and it adopted a simpler style: the two spheres and the first rim that contours them were maintained, now in white color, and a new color gradient (from violet to yellow), compose the current logo. The name "TV TEM" is now written in lowercase.^[8]

On October 25, 2024, there's announced that TV TEM will pass to cover the region of Presidente Prudente, replacing TV Fronteira.^[9][10]
