Lumine Group Acquires Synamedia Video Network Business
Lumine Group has completed its 16th corporate carve-out, acquiring the Video Network Business from Synamedia to deepen its media supply chain footprint.
Lumine Group has finalized the acquisition of the Video Network Business from Synamedia, marking the company's 16th corporate carve-out and reinforcing its strategic focus on the media technology sector.
