He also held controlling interest in "América TV," four radio stations and a Buenos Aires financial daily, El Cronista. Ever since 1998, Eurnekian's Corporación América has developed into a global / multi business holding company that comprises industries such as Airports and Cargo Terminals (Aeropuertos Argentina 2000), Energy (Unitec Bio), Infrastructure (Helport), Financial Services (Converse Bank), Agro-industries (Unitec Agro) throughout Latin America, Europe and Asia.

Currently, Corporación América is responsible for the concession of 76 airports worldwide mostly throughout Argentina, Italy, Armenia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil and Uruguay.

Eurnekian has received many awards for his work, most notable being the 1995 "Business Man of the Year Award" and the 1999 "Leonardo Award," which is an Italian recognition given to the foreign businessman of the year.
