Studio 100 Media and m4e, who are in the process of joining their forces, have started to re-organize its international licensing team.

Peter Kleinschmidt, Commercial Director at m4e, will now manage the division and all activities regarding the company’s international licensing & merchandising business and will help drive the commercial performance of brands within the Group’s portfolio. He oversees a large portfolio of successful own and third party brands such as “Maya the Bee”, “Mia and me”, “Arthur and the Minimoys” and “Sherazade – The Untold Stories”.

New to the team is Ms. Esra Sahin who was appointed as International Licensing Manager and will support Peter Kleinschmidt in the company’s headquarter in Munich, Germany. Prior to joining the group, Sahin worked at Framepool for stock footage licensing.

Ms. Sara Acquier from Studio 100 Animation in Paris completes the team, taking on the French market as Head of Licensing France.

The new international licensing team is set up to meet the expectations of a further challenging and increasing international market and will establish a worldwide agency network for its brands.
