The rebranding represents a holistic shift in its business approach, focused on creating complete content propositions, from format creation to production and global distribution.

Talpa, the globally renowned content powerhouse for non-scripted formats founded by John de Mol, proudly unveils its new name: Talpa Studios.

The company’s full statement:

This rebranding signifies more than just a name change. It also represents a holistic shift in its business approach, focused on creating complete content propositions, from format creation to production and global distribution. As a forerunner in the entertainment industry, Talpa Studios will continue to push the boundaries of creativity and innovation.

Recently, several formats, including The Floor, Marble Mania, Million Dollar Island, The Tribute and Hunting Season have successfully traveled the globe.

The transition into Talpa Studios marks the company’s strategic journey while preserving its distinguished heritage. John de Mol pioneered the entertainment industry for over four decades with iconic hit formats such as, The Voice, Big Brother, Deal or No Deal, and Fear Factor. The experienced team at Talpa Studios further builds on this legacy, producing innovative global formats and establishing itself as a collaborative creative network. Here, alongside focusing on originals, they actively co-develop content like Million Dollar Island, Lingo and The Big Bang, with the industry’s premium players and creative minds in various stages and forms.

With a multidisciplinary Dutch-based production studio, open to international hub productions, creativity is brought to life for platforms and streamers from around the world. Talpa Studios also has exclusive access rights to premium broadcast and streaming channels in the Netherlands and Germany.

This name change captures the full spectrum of all our activities under our roof. The expansion signifies the innovative strategy we’ve embarked upon since our exciting new journey began in 2022. We are dedicated to creating next-level content that connects people both within their homes and across the world. And thanks to our international hub productions, we’ve made our expertise and knowledge easily accessible for local adaptions of successful formats like The Floor, The Quiz with Balls and Marble Mania.

The rebranding also distinguishes the different activities of Talpa Network – John de Mol’s local media network company – from Talpa Studios. Although both companies are located in the Netherlands, they operate independently from each other.
