Netflix opens new Paris office as it expands French production
US streaming giant Netflix on Friday inaugurated a vast new office in Paris and announced a catalogue of new content for its market in France, where it currently claims 6.7 million subscribers, as well as further production partnerships.
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings today officially opened Netflix’s vast new French headquarters in the centre of Paris, reports Deadline.
Currently home to 40 employees in film, TV and marketing, and with ample space for at least 100 more, the shiny new space is a major sign of intent for the streamer in one of Europe’s most important – and heavily regulated – markets.
Netflix announced today that it will significantly increase investment in France, with 20 new French productions, and partnerships with leading French creative institutions.
The streamer’s French content executives today unveiled a handful of original shows as well as a range of series and films made by production partners for the streamer.
