What Manganelli Events does

Manganelli Events is a French technical event production company founded in 1995 and headquartered in the Lille metropolitan area (Marcq-en-Barœul, Hauts-de-France). The company provides end-to-end audiovisual services for live events and broadcasts, organized around five core service lines: content creation (Créer, via the Manganelli Contents sub-brand), video and audio capture (Capter), live and recorded broadcast (Diffuser), professional sound (Sonoriser), and event lighting (Éclairer). Its customer base spans enterprise (Stellantis, Michelin, Castorama, Decathlon, Crédit Agricole, Lesaffre), media (BFM TV, RMC Info Talk), sports (Tour de France, Olympic Games 2024 Lille Métropole), government (Région Hauts-de-France), and cultural institutions (Louvre Lens, LaM) across France and Europe.

The technology stack is built around professional broadcast and live-event infrastructure rather than software platforms. Core capabilities include the OB-Bus, a custom mobile broadcast truck on a bus chassis housing 13 workstations, 2 ATEM Constellation 4K/4ME switchers, 12 4K cameras on SMPTE fiber, and 10 HD/4K recording channels; mobile control rooms (Car Régie); LED video walls (indoor, outdoor, curved, trailer-mounted); digital sound consoles with Dante/Madi routing; high-power laser projectors for video mapping; and remote production workflows using 5G/SRT/IP cameras. Manganelli also offers standalone equipment dry-rental alongside full turnkey service delivery. ESG credentials include Ecovadis Platinum (Top 1%, 2025), Ecovadis Gold (2023), Prestadd "Entreprise Exemplaire" (2024), and ISO 20121 certification in progress.

Revenue mechanics are project-based and quote-driven (no public pricing), delivered through a B2B direct sales model with a single dedicated point of contact per project. Two streams are evident: full-service technical event production (professional services) and standalone equipment rental (hardware). Distribution is direct to enterprise clients, institutions, and event organizers, with mobile teams deployed throughout France and Europe. The company is privately held with no disclosed external investors, operates as two related French corporate entities (SIREN 519260053 and SIREN 849015706), and has no M&A or funding history in the input data.
