Atomix

What Atomix does

Atomix is a French technical event services company operating as a single-member private limited company (ATOMIX EURL), founded in 2012 and headquartered in a 2,000m² depot in Thise near Besançon, Bourgogne Franche-Comté. The company provides professional audiovisual equipment rental, on-site technical staffing, and equipment sales to festivals, event agencies, and local authorities across five integrated service divisions: sound reinforcement (Sonorisation), lighting (Éclairage), video/projection (Vidéo), stage structure and rigging (Structure), and electrical distribution up to 400A (Distribution Électrique) with Apave-certified safety compliance.

The equipment portfolio is built around premium-tier professional brands — including MA Lighting (GrandMA2/GrandMA3 control surfaces), Clay Paky and Martin moving heads (K20 Wash, MacViper Profile), Robert Juliat followspots and conventional fixtures, Yamaha digital consoles, Sennheiser microphones, Ayrton LED bars, Pioneer DJ gear, MDG atmospheric effects, and IP65-rated outdoor fixtures from Starway and Martin. Pricing follows a usage-based daily rental model with progressive coefficient multipliers (1.0× for 1 day, scaling to 8.0× for 30 days), a 30% reservation deposit requirement, and 30-day quote validity. Atomix also acts as a long-tenured authorized reseller of new equipment with installation services, and operates an "Occasion" secondary-market channel that monetizes its annual rental-fleet refresh cycle.

The go-to-market is direct-to-customer across Bourgogne Franche-Comté primarily, with stated capability to serve all of France and international events, executed through e-commerce browsing, phone/email reservation, in-person pickup at the Thise depot, and self-delivery via an in-house vehicle fleet ranging from 15m³ vans to 100m³ semi-trailers. The company employs 13 people, carries no external institutional investment, and operates as a founder-owned EURL with no subsidiaries, parent company, or disclosed M&A activity.
