Henneman Agency ties with The Partnership Group
The largest talent agency in the Benelux, Henneman Agency partners with The Partnership Group, group of agencies based in London.
The group’s clients include actors such as Idris Elba, James Norton, Olivia Cooke, Lucy Lui Ambika Mod, Naomie Harris and Marisa Abela and filmmakers such as Yorgos Lanthimos, Andrea Arnold and Alice Oseman. Additionally, a leading media IP rights team, representing A-list titles for potential adaptation into film, television, theatre, and other media, is part of the group.
This partnership strengthens Henneman Agency’s international position, fulfilling a long-held ambition to get closer to the heart of the English-speaking market and the rest of the world. This strategic investment from The Partnership Group, the first in a company outside of the UK, marks a significant milestone. Henneman coming into the group will strengthen its international presence and fulfil a long-held ambition to establish a stronger foothold in the European market.
For Henneman, this relationship will offer Dutch and Belgian actors, writers, directors, and other creative talents a broad international platform. While Henneman has always had the core ambition to support creative talent to reach their full potential, the agency now also has a solid foundation to help talents spread their wings internationally even further .
In addition to talent representation, the partnership between Henneman and TGP will focus on the development of joint projects, knowledge sharing, and strengthening the position of talents throughout all stages of the creative process.
“The partnership between TPG and Henneman dates back several years, during which we’ve worked together on the careers of several of our clients. We’ve found that we share the same DNA and that our values, ways of working, and ambitions align seamlessly, making this strategic collaboration the next logical step in further strengthening the ties between the agencies. What attracts me most about this partnership with TPG is the philosophy that each company maintains its own identity, autonomy, and independence, allowing us to continue providing our personal service in an increasingly global market, without changing the culture of our agency. This collaboration enables us to better represent, guide, and elevate our clients and their projects to the international stage. We believe in projects that have a lasting impact on society, contribute to inspiring stories, and are commercially successful,” says Vanessa Henneman, Director of Henneman Agency.
“Working together with Henneman Agency is a key strategic move for The Partnership Group and will open new doors and create exciting new opportunities for our clients. Our aim is to support a wider range of voices and stories and ensure that our industry remains dynamic and inclusive. We have always actively built ties across Europe and as soon as we met Vanessa we knew what a valued member of the group she could be. We are incredibly excited for our future collaboration and to welcome Vanessa and her team into the group” said Roger Charteris, CEO of The Partnership Group and Robert Taylor, Group MD in a joint statement.
