Technology, media & telecommunications
Industries
Media
The media industry is in the grip of a technological revolution where distribution models, commissioning procedures and revenue streams are all evolving as the industry responds to the shift to digital and personalisation. This has resulted in a flood of new channels, platforms and experiences, all of which have to be constantly fed with compelling, quality content. If they are not, audiences move on.
There has also been an increase in mergers and acquisitions, as big companies expand and new spin-offs spring from established businesses. In some regions it’s vertical, while in others it resembles an ecosystem.
Forward-thinking companies, prepared to revise their strategies, operations, products and services, can turn the challenges into real opportunities.
We’ve worked with players across the breadth of the industry, from film animators to studio infrastructure providers and games distributors to music broadcasters. We've supported businesses from start-up to IPO, through domestic mergers and international acquisitions.
Grant Thornton media experts can work with you on:
- cross-border film and TV
- accessing bridge and gap funding
- corporate finance and specialised media M&A work
- strategic advisory and business consulting
- local and international tax advice
- outsourcing, production accounting and payroll.
Telecommunications
The telecommunications industry is changing rapidly and facing pressure from all sides.
But despite the serious margin squeeze affecting balance sheets worldwide, telecommunication companies are handling the roll-out of new network technologies and an insatiable demand for bandwith.
They are also responding to increased regulatory pressures and the flood of disruptive technology firms entering the market. And they are tackling churn in a converging marketplace.
Our global network of professionals work with a wide range of telecommunications businesses, at all levels of the value chain. We support businesses of all sizes, from emerging companies to rapidly expanding ones as well as established industry players. Depending on your needs, we can help your business grow globally or in your local market.
We can work with you to:
- achieve sustainable growth
- manage risk and regulation
- optimise operations
- finance growth
- manage talent for growth
- manage issues of ownership and stakeholder value.
As well as this global industry, we have in-depth knowledge of many other industries and sectors. If you would like to learn more, please contact us.
