We are a PR firm with direct access to France's media decision-makers.
No intermediaries. No learning curve.
Talk to usMost of our clients found us through someone they trust. A colleague who said: talk to Monday, they'll know what to do.
That's how it's always worked. No advertising. No cold outreach. Just two people who spent 20 years inside French television - and who now help international media companies navigate a market that doesn't work like any other.
Laurence Gallot and Antoine Banet-Rivet founded Monday after spending more than 20 years heading the Communications department at CANAL+ Group, working alongside the leaders of today's major French media outlets and top production houses.
When you work with Monday, you work with us. Not a team. Not a junior. Us. Every call. Every meeting. Every decision.

Thirty years in the audiovisual media industry, including over 20 years as Head of Communications for CANAL+ Group, as well as serving as a member of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board. An inside knowledge of the sector, built over time.
Antoine Banet-Rivet

Our clients don't introduce us as their agency. They introduce us as their team.
SVOD, FAST, BVOD
France has one of the most heavily regulated media markets in the world. From media chronology ("chronologie des médias") and investment requirements in local production to broadcasting quotas: broadcasters, producers, and distributors operate within a framework that has no equivalent anywhere else. We have been working with these rules for years—allowing you to move faster and avoid missteps.
We spent 20 years learning these rules.
So you don't have to learn them the hard way.
No deck. No sales process. Just an honest conversation to see if we're the right fit.
