Marjorie Blake-Convey, CEO, The Edge Picture Company, says:
“Like Zinc, we are driven by a single focus: to produce inspiring films that tell clients’ stories in unforgettable ways. We also share the same cultural, creative and commercial values as Zinc and that’s why this deal is so important to us.
“We have had over 30 years of success as an independent business and the time is now right to fuel The Edge’s long-term growth within the context of a larger content group, where we can benefit from creative and commercial scale, and where we can make new investments in organic growth. Being part of Zinc offers this and we are beyond excited to be joining the Group.”

The Edge is a truly impressive business – highly-respected, sustainably profitable with a World-class reputation, and we are thrilled that it is joining the Group.”
The Edge will continue to be run by the same management team and operate in the same way from our current offices, but benefit from the creative and commercial opportunities presented by being part of an enlarged organisation.
