Central International Media Inc. (CIMI) is a multi-national publicly traded media conglomerate that owns a wide array of media outlets. CIMI owns the TV networks Central and Télévision Laurentienne.
Formerly known as Capitol States-Central, Inc., the company succeeded the merged companies of the Central Television Corporation, owners of the Central television network and Capitol States Broadcasting Company. In 1998, they purchased the French-language service TVL, which in part, subsequently became part of Central. Many of TVL's network operations were transferred to the Maison de Télévision Central in René Lévesque Boulevard East, but some of it still remain in Rue Alexandre de Sève, including CHTM-TV's studios/newsroom and master control.
