Vantiva SA (formerly Technicolor SA, Thomson SARL, Thomson SA, and Thomson Multimedia) is a French multinational corporation that provides technology products and services for the communication, media and entertainment industries. Headquartered in Paris,[2] Vantiva also maintains offices in Rennes (France), Beijing (China), Seoul (South Korea), Chennai (India), Edegem (a suburb of Antwerp, Belgium), Norcross (U.S), and Manaus (Brazil).

The company was originally known as Thomson Multimedia and rebranded as Technicolor SA on January 27, 2010, adopting the name of its U.S. film technology subsidiary.[3][4] In September 2022, Technicolor Creative Studios was spun off as a separate entity (now known as Technicolor Group), and the remaining company rebranded as Vantiva.[5]

Vantiva is organized into three divisions:

  • Connected Home: Manufactures broadband modems and Android TV set-top boxes
  • HomeSight: Offers remote care and monitoring services in clients’ homes.
  • Smart Spaces: Provides monitoring systems for self-storage facilities.
  • Supply Chain Solutions: Previously known as the fourth division, but was sold off in April 2025[6]

Vantiva acquired CommScope's Home Networks on 2 January 2024.[7] On February 24, 2025, Vantiva announced restructuring efforts in response to financial difficulties, which resulted in the closure of certain operations.[6]
