nWave Pictures has entered into a partnership with the MZM production group and Belga Films to expand nWave’s brand and market reach. MZM and Belga have purchased a majority stake in nWave.
MZM’s Matthieu Gondinet becomes nWave’s new COO, while MZM founder Matthieu Zeller is the company’s new CEO and co-Chairman, a position he will share with nWave co-founder Eric Dillens. Ben Stassen and Caroline van Iseghem, nWave’s other co-founders, will remain with the company, with the former continuing to work on productions and the latter continuing to run the studio.
Dillens shared that “the intent was to expand our market reach into new areas and build our brand in multiple areas and on multiple platforms. It is a partnership that will take the company to the next level for a bigger and brighter future.”
Jérôme de Béthune of Belga Films added that “nWave plays and will continue playing a leading role in the development and diversification of the audiovisual content, from being a pioneer in 3D content to future virtual reality.”
