PROFILE |
 |
Yupi Internet has nothing to do with Topsiders and tweed, and everything to do with Spanish-language Web surfing. The company's Yupi.com Web site consists of a search engine that offers 12 navigational channels under categories such as sports, news, entertainment, and health. Yupi.com's Ciudad Futura Web community consists of personal sites devoted to friendship, leisure, and entertainment. Its Mujer Futura site caters to the interests of women while its amarillas site serves the B2B community. Founded in 1996, Yupi has more than 3 million registered users. Microsoft and Telmex joint venture T1msn.com acquired the company in 2001, thereby accelerating expansion in the US Hispanic market.
