Terranoa adds France Télévisions exec

Paris-based distributor Terranoa has appointed the former head of factual at France Télévisions Distribution as its head of sales in French-speaking territories.

Bertrand Lossignol joined Terranoa at the beginning of September having been at the distribution arm of the French pubcaster since 2012.

Prior to that, Lossignol spent five years at Lagardère Entertainment Rights (fka as Europe Images International), where he was in charge of French-, Italian- and Spanish-speaking territories.

Terranoa says it has invested in 30 hours of new programming recently, which is set to launch at TV France International’s Rendez-Vous market in Biarritz next week.
