Novator, an English private equity investment firm, completed a $250m investment in DNEG, a provider of visual effects and animation services. “The global explosion in demand for high-quality content across platforms has given rise to significant opportunities in the media and entertainment market, and we have identified DNEG as having all of the key components in place to take full advantage of these opportunities. Building on its award-winning legacy, we are backing Namit’s vision to accelerate DNEG’s evolution from pure services provider to content production and gaming services powerhouse for the entire eco-system," Thor Björgólfsson, Novator Chairman.
