History

WarnerMedia EMEA

As Turner Broadcasting System EMEA

In 1985, Ted Turner launched a European division in London, England,[2] which would reach across the Middle East and African regional feed.[3]

Rebranding as WarnerMedia

In 2019, Turner EMEA would be moving to its new headquarters in Old Street, Shoreditch, London. The new headquarters would have more office space, allowing room for the company's European operations to expand, and a brand new custom-built CNN newsroom.[4] The remaining division was later rebranded as WarnerMedia EMEA by 2020.

Discovery Networks EMEA

It started out with the launch of the Discovery Channel in Europe in 1989. In mid-2007, Discovery Networks Europe was split into two separate branches, Discovery Networks UK and Discovery Networks EMEA,[5] with the following: localised branches Discovery Networks Deutschland, Discovery Networks Benelux, Discovery Networks Nordic, Discovery Networks Italia and Discovery Networks EMEA (which served all other territories).[6] Again in 2011, Discovery Networks Europe was split into two key branches Discovery Networks Western Europe (DNWE) and Discovery Networks CEEMEA (Central & Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa). DNWE was located in London and the operations in the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, France and Flanders. All other operations in Europe are operated by Discovery Networks CEEMEA in Warsaw.

In November 2014, Discovery Networks Western Europe was split into Discovery Networks Northern Europe and Discovery Networks Southern Europe. Its previous Discovery Networks Western Europe served 30 countries including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Iceland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, France, the Netherlands and other territories, comprising 18 brands.[7]

Between 2014 and 2016 Discovery Networks EMEA consisted of the following branches: Northern Europe, CEEMEA, Southern Europe.

From late 2016 all localised operations fall under the umbrella of Discovery EMEA[8] with headquarters in Amsterdam and London, and local offices in among other Milan and Warsaw.[9][10]

Discovery halted all broadcasts of its 15 linear channels to Russia through the Media Alliance partnership on 9 March 2022 in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[11]

Merger as Warner Bros. Discovery EMEA

Discovery EMEA were merged into WarnerMedia, forming Warner Bros. Discovery EMEA in 2022.

Discovery Networks UK started out with the launch of the Discovery Channel in Europe in 1989 and was for a long time a part of Discovery Networks Europe (DNE). In early 2007, DNE was split into two separate branches, Discovery Networks UK and Discovery Network EMEA, both headquartered in London.[19] As of 2011 Discovery Networks Europe has merged its operations in the UK, Nordic region and other parts of Western Europe to form Discovery Networks Western Europe.[18]

In the UK the Discovery Channel has been the number one factual channel throughout its 20-year history. It has a 47 percent share of the PAYTV factual market (Source BARB/TechEdge).

Current operations

In 2007, Discovery Networks Europe decided to localize its networks across Europe. This resulted in the establishment of Discovery Discovery Networks Deutschland, Discovery Networks Benelux, Discovery Networks Nordic, Discovery Networks UK and Discovery Networks Italia and Discovery Networks EMEA (which served all other territories).[19][20] As of 2011, operations in the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, France and Flanders are operated by Discovery Networks Western Europe.[18] All other operations in Europe are operated by Discovery Networks CEEMEA in Warsaw.[21]
