Microsoft Advertising signs 12-month strategic partnership with Entertainment - 7 APRIL 2014 - 11:50AM UPDATED | POSTED BY NATALIE MORTIMER - One.http://www.thedrum.com/news/2014/04/07/microsoft-advertising-signs-12-month-strategic-partnership-entertainment-one - Microsoft Advertising has today (7 April) announced a year-long strategic advertising partnership with independent film distributor Entertainment One UK (eOne UK). The partnership, which began with films Need for Speed and Divergent, will see eOne UK promote new film launches with creative campaigns across MSN, Xbox, Skype and Windows 8. Working closely with ZenithOptimedia and eOne’s creative agencies, Microsoft Advertising’s in-house team will support the creation of premium content-led ads, specifically tailored to Microsoft platforms. Additionally, eOne UK will use Microsoft’s ‘Unique ID’ data to target specific audiences on relevant platforms for each film.

Thanks. Wanted to buy at £1.40 and sell just before drop. Halifax advised that because of spread (which was only 22%) it was not available to trade online but could purchase by phone. Told them problem with that is time it takes to get through to them each time. Said would be available for dealing online only once spread drops. How much? 'Enough'! Not a satisfactory answer considering... will be intetesting to see when this is available online.
Does anyone else have a halifax account and who has a problem buying this share?. Halifax doesnt recognise the company or code.

The company's new international film division head, Harold van Lier, will use the fund to acquire worldwide rights on "premium commercial films." LONDON – Entertainment One has set up a $100 million film acquisition fund as the freshly appointed president of its international film division, Harold van Lier, gets his feet under his desk. Van Lier, the former executive vp international distribution at StudioCanal, is launching eOne Films International’s film financing arm to leverage financing secured from eOne territories, on top of acquiring worldwide rights. A year ago, eOne acquired Canadian rival Alliance Films, creating a group with reach in the U.S., U.K., Spain and elsewhere. eOne Films International’s new integrated financing structure will aim to snap up worldwide rights on "a series of premium commercial films through the coming years," the company said in a statement. The acquisition fund is a statement of the company’s "considerable commitment and enhanced spending-power" and will "offer producers a substantial investment in their films and ideally positions eOne to secure wide-appeal commercial titles for both direct and international distribution." Van Lier will collaborate with eOne film business leaders across territories and will focus on bringing fresh relationships from within the European creative community to eOne. He will work alongside Alex Hamilton, managing director, eOne Films U.K.; film production head Xavier Marchand; and L.A.-based executives Benedict Carver and Lara Thompson. eOne Films International’s strengthened partnership potential is also reinforced by a production financing deal struck with City National Bank and OneWest Bank for projects in which eOne Films International "significantly" invests. Said Van Lier: "The acquisition fund is a game-changing resource for our division and will support our new strategy to get our hands on the most sought-after films in the earliest stages. eOne’s amassed ability to offer content creators a major financial contribution towards their projects, broad international expertise and access to the most robust international infrastructure is absolutely unmatched." Van Lier is also gearing up for the debut of Seville International later this year. Longtime Montreal-based vp international sales Anick Poirier will run the start-up division from eOne’s Quebec-based Les Films Seville offices.

But a court decision to allow it to reorganise its debt and news that production restarted last week have lifted its shares up 27% to 8.75p. They are still down around 70% over the past two years, however.Chief executive Pekka Pera said:With the reorganisation process now beginning, we can also continue our metals production, which re-commenced last week after a one month stoppage of our metals recovery plant.
