Alsace 20, formerly Alsatic TV, is a French regional general-interest television channel covering Alsace, with offices in Strasbourg. Bought by Altice Média, Alsace 20 was renamed BFM Alsace on 28 June 2022.[1]

History

Named Alsatic TV when it started up in 2006, the channel was created on the initiative of two regional dailies, DNA and L'Alsace.[2]

In September 2009, Alsatic TV became Alsace 20.

In 2012, with an audience of 300,000 viewers per week,[3] the channel, present on DTT, was bought by Dominique Formhals from Crédit Mutuel.[4] Dominique Formhals' company Aquatique Show, already present in the capital since the beginning, held 56% of the shares.[5] The companies HDR (Daniel Trabucco), IFMO (Jean-Luc Bury), Stacco (Raymond Schweitzer) as well as the Chairman of SIG (Martial Bellon), in a personal capacity, completed the round table of shareholders.[6]

Each year, Alsace 20 produces five hundred hours of programs with a budget of 1.5 million euros.[7]

On June 25, 2021, Altice Média applied to the CSA for approval of the takeover by the Altice group of the company A.télé, which published Alsace 20 and provided details on the nature of the planned editorial project and the name of the service concerned by this operation.[8]

The group bought Alsace 20 at the end of 2021 which became, on June 28, 2022, BFM Alsace.[9]
