Sixtine

What Sixtine does

Sixtine (legal entity Sixtine Création SARL) is a French independent creative content production studio headquartered in Paris, founded in 2007 by three partners from marketing, audiovisual, and digital backgrounds. The firm operates a hybrid integrated model that combines a 1,400 m² in-house production studio with 70 permanent staff and a network of roughly 400 freelance creatives, and is organized into 8 specialized labels covering film, video, photo, motion design, live event, podcast, and interactive content production. Its work is delivered across three commercial categories — advertising (Publicité), brand content, and corporate communications — for a roster of enterprise clients that includes L'Oréal, Schneider Electric, Orange, Nestlé, LVMH, Philips, BNP Paribas, TotalEnergies, SNCF, Bouygues Construction, Dassault Systèmes, Deezer, Pernod Ricard, Coca-Cola, Sanofi, EDF, Michelin, Accor-affiliated Center Parcs, TikTok, Pinterest, Disney, and Avène, as well as public-sector accounts such as CNRS, the Armée de Terre, Banque de France, and the Grand Paris Express infrastructure program.

Revenue is generated almost entirely from custom, project-based creative production services billed per engagement under multi-year contract arrangements, with the firm positioning itself as a year-round content partner rather than a project-only vendor. The go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales into corporate marketing and communications departments, supplemented by agency referrals where Sixtine acts as production house for ad campaigns; there is no self-serve, platform, or retail distribution channel. Sixtine reports €20 million in annual revenue, competes primarily on the breadth of its integrated format coverage and the scale of its freelance talent network, and supports its commercial positioning through industry awards (notably Spot d'Or 2022 for Bouygues Bâtiment International and Trophée Or 2023 for a Surfrider Foundation campaign at the Deauville Green Award). The company is privately held under French SARL law with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, M&A activity, or external funding rounds, and operates a single-country footprint centered on France.
