TAV

What TAV does

TAV (legal name: Technique A Vue – SA au Capital de 500.000 €) is a French privately held audiovisual equipment rental and services firm founded in 1997 and headquartered in Bry-sur-Marne, near Paris. The company specializes in the rental, sale, and technical exploitation of large-format LED screens (over 2,000 m² of fleet), LCD video walls, plasma displays, and high-power video projection systems, with capability extending into monumental architectural mapping. Its core technology stack centers on a proprietary "Vidéo Interne" content distribution system and a live-scoring integration that connects directly to referee tablets; TAV holds official international provider status with the ATP and has served 150+ tennis tournaments worldwide.

TAV's customer base spans three primary segments: sports events (Roland Garros for 15 consecutive years, PSG at Parc des Princes, Masters 1000 Monte-Carlo, Open 13 Marseille, Vincennes Hippodrome), television production (France Télévision, TF1, L'Equipe 21, Europe 1, Canal+ Sport), and corporate/event clients (Peugeot Avenue showroom, conventions, salons, conferences, and permanent installations such as at Assemblée Nationale). Its business model is project-based day-rate rental with a 30% deposit at booking, supplemented by one-time sale-and-integration revenue for permanent installations and professional services revenue for content production, multi-camera capture, streaming, sound, and lighting.

The company sells exclusively through a direct sales motion — no resellers or distribution partners — leveraging its Paris-region base for rapid deployment within France and mobile control rooms for international event coverage. Leadership is founder-led: Antoine MEVEL serves as Président Fondateur, with Julien MADEC as Commercial Director and Guillaume LE MOING as Technical Director. TAV is privately held with no external investors, parent company, or disclosed M&A activity.
