Backup Systems, the owner of the cloud-based app MovieChainer, has acquired a strategic stake in Moonday, the new AI-powered social and professional network dedicated to the film and TV industry.
MovieChainer launched five years ago and allows right-holders to model and track the legal and financial structure of their film projects. MovieChainer and Moonday will unveil new data-centric features for the industry the fourth quarter.
“Our services address the same clients, and while our respective promises are and will remain distinct, it rapidly became clear to us that several of our respective features could benefit from such synergies” said Olivier Bronckart, Moonday’s CEO and co-founder.
Sandrine Legrand, head of product strategy and partnerships for MovieChainer, said the company’s “underlying philosophy is that our products constantly need to evolve to adapt to our clients’ needs and deliver a better user experience.”

His latest stars Berenice Bejo opposite director Cedric Kahn (who has appeared in several other director’s works recently, including as one of a pair of doctor’s in Axelle Ropert’s Miss and the Doctors, 2013) as a couple breaking up over ten years.
