PROFILE |
 |
When it comes to sports marketing and promotion, Groupe Jean-Claude Darmon has kicked around a few ideas. The company handles advertising, promotions, public relations, and broadcasting rights for football (soccer) clubs across France. Not exclusive to football, or France, the firm also promotes sporting events in ice skating, rugby, and tennis, and manages the broadcasting rights for football matches in Italy and Africa (foreign operations account for 24% of sales). Founder and chairman Jean-Claude Darmon owns 35% of the company that bears his name; Luxembourg media company Audiofina owns 28% through its Audiomédia subsidiary. Bertelsmann and Vivendi Universal are folding some sports-right units into Jean-Claude Darmon. The media giants will each own about 40% of the firm following the deal. Darmon's stake will be reduced to 5%.
