What Séptima Media does

Séptima Media is a privately held Spanish communications holding company (legal entity La Séptima Suma, S.L.) founded in 2024 and headquartered in Madrid, with additional offices in Valencia/Paterna, Valladolid, and Inca (Mallorca). The group operates as a vertically integrated audiovisual services platform, consolidating eight wholly-owned subsidiaries that span the entire production value chain: Séptima Media Contenidos and 221 Baker Street (fiction, cinema, documentaries), Kimera (boutique entertainment), Virtual Lemon (broadcast engineering and equipment integration), Emission (mobile units and DSNG signal transmission), Sheri Producciones (BPO and technical staffing), TVM (full-service audiovisual production), and Séptima Media Baleares (regional content for the Balearic Islands). The company deploys infrastructure including three mobile broadcast units supporting up to 16 cameras, DSNGs, and 5G transmission backpacks.

Séptima Media's revenue derives from a mix of professional services (production, live event coverage, remote production), managed services (24/7 broadcast signal generation, with ~50 personnel dedicated to the RTVM/Telemadrid contract alone), hardware sales and engineering installations (Virtual Lemon), and BPO technical staffing (Sheri Producciones). Customers are primarily Spanish regional public television broadcasters — Telemadrid, Aragón TV, À Punt, TVG, and the Junta de Castilla y León — alongside streaming platforms (Disney+, ViX Plus) and event organizers (Eurosport, One Toro TV, FIA Motorsport Games, Valencia Marathon). Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise sales, public procurement bids (licitaciones), and repeat engagements with media companies, with custom project-based pricing on multi-year contracts.

The group's recent strategic moves, including the March 2025 wins of the RTVM signal-generation contract and the Castilla y León audiovisual news service, plus the appointment of senior executives Óscar Cifuentes, Cayetana Guillén-Cuervo, Alfonso Albacete, and Armando Gallego, indicate an active scaling phase aimed at building a national audiovisual services champion with growing fiction and platform-export capabilities.
