Média-Participations has appointed Lila Hannou as VP of creative development and strategy. The new role—which she started in last week—sees her leading development, accelerating growth in co-productions, and shaping overall strategy for the French prodco’s audiovisual division, alongside managing director Caroline Audebert.
Hannou hails from broadcaster Groupe M6, where she has spent the last 20 years in various executive positions, most recently serving as director of animation pre-buys and co-productions.
Her appointment comes just in time for Média-Participations’ departure for Cartoon Forum, where it will present Living with Dad on behalf of French publishing company Dupuis Edition et Audiovisuel and Under the School with Ellipsanime Productions.
