M&A Market: Banijay Germany integrates All3Media units under new Filmpool United structure
Following the global merger of Banijay Entertainment and All3Media, Banijay Germany, led by Marcus Wolter, is integrating the German All3Media subsidiaries Filmpool Entertainment, Filmpool Fiction, South & Browse, and a 50% stake in Magic Connection. The combined German operations generated a pro-forma revenue of €407 million in 2025, with Banijay Germany contributing €312 million and All3Media Deutschland €95 million. The All3 units are bundled under a new brand, Filmpool United, led by Vittorio Valente, who reports directly to Wolter but is not on the board. Wolter emphasizes leveraging synergies and maintaining strong brands, while the future of the separate digital agency Little Dot Studios remains unclear. Banijay Germany is also expanding beyond traditional TV production into branded content and live entertainment, with over 20% of revenue now coming from non-classical production.
The global Banijay-All3Media merger has significant implications for the European TV production and advertising industry, but this analysis focuses on the German integration specifics.
