Continuing to lead IPC now alongside the brilliant producers at the group companies will be a privilege. In this booming content marketplace, there has never been a greater need for a supplier like Industrial Media that can support exceptional filmmakers while delivering consistently and at the highest quality level for our buyers.\u201d<\/p>\n Miller added, \u201cWe have reorganized the company, re-invigorated franchises, and set the stage for a new chapter of growth for our assets and investments. Eli and his team are incredibly forward-thinking and possess all of the skills and vision needed to not only compete but thrive as they lead our business today and in the future marketplace.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CORE Media Group has acquired the production company The Intellectual Property Corporation (IPC) and is relaunching as Industrial Media, to be led by Eli Holzman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":8910,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[1882,1883,1884],"class_list":["post-8909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-core-media-group","tag-eli-holzman","tag-industrial-media"],"yoast_head":"\n
