BBC/Studio Lambert Banijay Entertainment and the Redbird IMI-owned All3Media have completed their $8 billion merger, creating what the two have described as “the world’s largest independent production company.”
Despite Banijay’s Parisian roots, the combined company — which will go under the name Banijay Entertainment — will be based in All3Media’s home of London, adding a further boost to the U.K.’s creative sector. It will be jointly owned by Banijay Group and RedBird IMI, each holding a 50% stake, and will be consolidated by Banijay Group.
