Over the course of his career, Janne has produced over 40 films, including the acclaimed "Farinelli". His career has also led him to play a decisive role in the evolution of the media at Wallonia. Notably, he influenced the decision of Elio Di Rupo, Wallonia's Minister-President at the time, to activate regional cable operators and introduce digital decoders. His strategic position at Voo, a leading telecommunications group, bears witness to his influence.

Janne's investments are not limited to cinema and telecommunications. He also invests in remarkable real estate, such as the Café Belga at Place Flagey and the Café Walvis near the canal. The acquisition of Café Belga illustrates its impact on the renewal of the Flagey district.

His profile is also marked by a personality sometimes considered impulsive, as evidenced by his traffic offence where he was apprehended for speeding and using a telephone at the wheel. His legal troubles include accusations of harassment of his ex-girlfriend.

In addition, Janne doesn't hesitate to provoke in the media field. He owned the French-language satirical magazine Pan before selling it in 2010 to merge with the magazine Ubu, a modest media operation in view of the number of subscribers and the number of readers. Dominique Janne's assets are estimated at over 65 million euros.
