Background
Participant Media, LLC was an American film production company founded in 2004 by Jeffrey Skoll, dedicated to entertainment intended to spur social change. After 20 years of operation, Skoll announced on April 16, 2024 that he was dissolving the company and most of the staff would be let go. Today, Participant only functions to control the interests of its film library.
