Cris Morena Group is a production company, in charge of creating mostly youth programming and formats. Founded in 2002 by Cris Morena, it is one of the main production companies in Argentina and is based in Buenos Aires. Unlike other production companies, Cris Morena Group not only devises TV formats, but also generates ancillary businesses such as CDs, magazines, licenses, musicals and theatrical productions.

Cris Morena productions are also adapted across the world. Her shows have been adapted to, among others, India, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia and Chile.

Most CMG productions are co-produced with RGB Entertainment, except for Rebelde Way and Rincón de Luz which were co-produced by Israeli company Dori Media Group. CMG is responsible for the creative part of the projects while RGB is in charge of the business, contracts and finances.

Cris Morena Group was temporarily closed for two years. Its comeback production is weekly youth-oriented fiction Aliados, co-produced with Telefe.
