Digital media services provider ODMedia has announced the acquisition of its French counterpart Pixagility.
The move opens up a new client base in France and on Africa’s Ivory Coast.
“We are thrilled to welcome Pixagility into the ODMedia family,” said Sjef Pijnenburg, CEO of ODMedia. “This acquisition strengthens our presence in France and Africa and accelerates our ability to deliver exceptional services to clients worldwide. It’s a synergy of strengths that will drive innovation and elevate our service standards.”
The two companies will offer a suite of services to content owners, OTT platforms, TV channels, telecom operators, and internet players.
Both ODMedia and Pixagility will continue to operate independently, with Pixagility maintaining its headquarters in Boulogne, France. Philippe Monzein will continue as Managing Director of Pixagility and will report directly to William Linders, Managing Director of ODMedia.
“Joining forces with ODMedia is a testament to the shared vision and values of both companies, and we look forward to delivering enhanced value to our clients through this exciting partnership,” added Monzein.
ODMedia acts as an aggregator for the major platforms, providing digital rights management, monetization, target audience development, and cross-promotion. It also manages linear and non-linear channel playout for SVOD, AVOD, and TVOD. It has preferred partner status from Apple and is a Netflix preferred fulfilment partner.
Since February 2023, Dutch Capital A Investment Partners has acquired a minority stake in ODMedia with CapitalA assisting ODMedia in its M&A strategy.
