Telemundo Studios Miami was launched as Telemundo-RTI Studios, a joint venture of American Spanish-language television network Telemundo and Colombian television production company RTI Producciones. However, in late October 2006, Telemundo Communications Group announced the complete acquisition of the remaining 50% from R.T.I. Producciones, renaming the studio as Telemundo Studios Miami. Additionally, Tepuy International was acquired and repositioned as Telemundo's international distribution divisions, being rebranded as Telemundo International. Former Telemundo-RTI president and head of Telemundo's in-house production Patricio Wills stepped down from the rebranded Miami-division and became president in charge of Telemundo Television Studios. CEO Marcos Santana became the president of Telemundo International.[1][2][3]
In October 2016, Telemundo Studios' parent company NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises announced the creation of their international production division dedicated to Spanish language content for international markets, named Telemundo International Studios, with Marcos Santana as president of the division.[4]

In August 2019, NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises announced they had acquired Argentine television production company Underground Producciones, marking Telemundo Global Studios' expansion into the Argentinian television production market.

In May 2021, NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises entered the streaming television production genre by announcing the establishment of Telemundo Streaming Studios, a division based in Miami dedicated to premium scripted Spanish-language production for streaming services, with Marcos Santana leading the new division as its president.[9]
