Rome – Studio71, the multichannel network controlled by German broadcaster ProSiebenSat.1, has forged partnerships with French TV network TF1 Group and Italy’s Mediaset, which have become minority shareholders in the company, forming a European alliance in the advertising-video-on-demand sector.
TF1 has taken a 6.1% stake in Studio71, while Mediaset has taken an initial 5.5% chunk for a combined investment of 53 million euros ($56 million). ProSiebenSat retains about 70% of Studio71 shares, according to a statement.
The deal values Studio71 at roughly 400 million euros ($425 million).
