Blu Digital Group acquires Dicentia Studios

Blu Digital Group, Inc., recently acquired Dicentia Studios.  Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, the company specializes in content distribution, localization, and post-production services for the European market. “Adding Dicentia Studios to the Blu team offers a huge opportunity to provide a premium solution to content owners looking to drive the maximum value from their content and rights,” said Paulette Pantoja, Blu Digital Group’s CEO. “Our acquisition of Haymillian substantially grew our localization footprint by adding over 6500 translator team members. Through our acquisition of Dicentia Studios we are expanding our media management and distribution services further across Europe.”

Dicentia Studios is distinguished as one of the few digital media fulfillment companies in the world that is both an iTunes Preferred Encoding House and a Netflix Preferred Fulfillment Partner. Through the acquisition the combined group is now positioned as a premier provider of media management, localization and distribution services, handling all aspects of the value chain from content to market. 

Blu Digital Group has made a series of three strategic acquisitions in 2022. The acquisition of Dicentia Studios follows the purchase of Haymillian in November 2022, a deal that established Blu’s presence in Latin America, Europe and the Middle East, most notably in the United Kingdom, Greece and Mexico. Dicentia specializes in the physical and digital distribution of film, music, games and audio books. The company works across physical and digital media platforms to help customers capitalize on their content delivered to video streaming platforms around the world.

“The mission of Dicentia has always been to help media license holders maximize the value of their content and rights. It was clear from our earliest conversations with the Blu team that we were very well-aligned in terms of our focus, goals, and the solutions we offered,” said Bobby Johar, Dicentia Studios CEO. “Joining forces with Blu provides us with the opportunity to see our vision applied across a much broader landscape.”
