Recently Technicolor has rebranded to become Vantiva, after the spin-off of Technicolor Studios, and evolved into two industry-leading, independent listed companies.

Technicolor Creative Studios will continue to provide premium VFX & animation services to the global entertainment, media and advertising industries. 

Vantiva will continue to leverage their leadership in high-growth Android TV and Ultra-Broadband technology markets and build on expertise in manufacturing, custom packaging and global logistics through its Supply Chain Solutions.

A significant number of transversal functions, essential to run operations, are still supporting both companies. These functions are called “Transition Services”.

The Transition Services teams provide Vantiva and Technicolor Creative Studios with strong foundations that will give them a head start in their new life.

The transition services are planned to end by Q1 2024 at which time the existing teams will be separated resulting in each business having its own, independent teams. There will be many opportunities for Transition Team employees to embark in a new journey in one of the companies at separation.  These functions will be essential to the future success of both companies and Transition Team members will have the opportunity to participate and gain experience from the very exciting and interesting separation project.

 Each company now has their own websites. You can access them here:
