Cyber Group Studios, the Paris-based maker of children’s entertainment, is expanding its leadership team as it looks forward to future growth and animated offerings.

“We’re charting a course that perfectly positions us for the future,” says Dominique Bourse, Chairman and CEO of Cyber Group Studios. “I’m proud and excited about the talent we have attracted and confident that 2023 will be a spectacular year filled with many new milestones.”

Michèle Massonnat has been promoted to Vice President, Sales and Acquisition, and Ben Abrass has been appointed Head of Digital. Both bring with them a rich history in the industry and experience that Cyber Group Studios will be using for its continued work in the animation sphere. 

Massonnat was previously the Senior Sales Manager at Cyber Group Studious. Prior to her time with the company, she worked in television, home entertainment sales, marketing, and media rights. She will report directly to Raphaelle Mathieu, Executive Vice President.

Abrass has previous experience in digital media as a creative strategist at Warner Bros. He will now be managing Cyber Group Studios’ digital strategy, centering especially D2C and Web3. He will also report directly to Mathieu, who’s expressed excitement to have these “two exceptional talents” on the team.

Cyber Group Studios had its start in 2005 and has since been developing animated content for kids and families across the globe. From art-filled short films like La Custodia to super-powered animated series like 50/50 Heroes, the company has a broad portfolio.
