Iris Medias is a Ivory Coast–based media and communications company that combines digital journalism with event production and multimedia services. Structured as a limited company, Iris Medias operates a French-language news and entertainment brand covering people, music, sport, society and politics for Francophone West African audiences. In addition to editorial output, the organisation offers event planning and promotion, artist booking and hospitality placement, photo/video reportage, graphic design/infography, printing-related services and community management. Iris Medias positions itself as both a publisher and a production partner: it produces news and cultural content while organising or supporting live shows, artist bookings and publicity campaigns. The company’s activities span online publishing, e-publicity and web promotion as well as on-the-ground event logistics and audiovisual production. Its audience strategy targets urban Francophone readers and followers interested in celebrity news, local music scenes and sports coverage, and the brand maintains an active presence on social platforms and messaging channels to distribute multimedia and video content. Founded through statutes dated December 2018 and registered with Ivorian authorities in early 2019, Iris Medias has developed a notable social footprint across platforms used in the region. The combination of editorial output and commercial services — from booking and community management to print and promotional production — makes Iris Medias a hybrid media house serving both readers and clients in Ivory Coast’s creative and entertainment sectors.
