In 2020, Mediawan, a production powerhouse, saw its portfolio of subsidiaries explode. With major acquisitions like Lagardère Studios and Plan B (Brad Pitt), managing the registers and statutory filings was becoming unmanageable for Aimée Chupin, legal manager and former media lawyer.

Challenge

Mediawan's rapid growth demanded rigorous and efficient management of corporate operations. Aimée found herself buried under board minutes, manual registers and approvals of annual accounts. Time for a new approach.

  1. Digitise its registers – No more manual documents. Everything is now centralised and accessible at a click.

  2. Automate drafting and tracking – No need to do everything by hand. The platform handles document production effortlessly.

  3. Streamline statutory filings – All filings are handled by our teams, freeing up valuable time.

Onboarding

Despite initial concerns about adopting new technology, getting Alex up and running went smoothly. In just a few weeks, all entities were on the platform without a hitch. The tool even adapted to Mediawan's internal templates.

The Little Extra

Automated accounting calculations and alerts for insufficient legal reserve allocations saved the corporate team masses of time. Aimée also highlights the platform's ease of use — a pleasure to work with, unlike her old tool, which caused more stress than efficiency.
