What is the difference between The Fondation Hergé and Tintinimaginatio?

The latter, I might add, sounds like a dreadful mouthful of gobbledy-gook and I might argue that their old name may have been a more effective choice. Their take on it, according to the website:

"Firstly, we wanted to bring the word Tintin back into the name of the operational activities management and marketing activities, because it is an iconic name that has the immense advantage of being much more recognised internationally. The name Tintin is famous throughout the world, whereas the name Moulinsart is translated into different languages.

"Secondly: this new name also reflects the new perspectives of opening up to the virtual world, the imaginary world, and the imagination. We find both the ideas of "image" and "imagination" in it, which are two of the main foundations of Hergé's universe. This new name clearly shows the desire to continue to bring this universe to life in every way imaginable. In this presentation you will discover new activities that are being developed in several innovative areas.

"But alongside these innovations, the traditional activities will still be very much in place. They will also be represented, which is why the name Éditions Moulinsart remains unchanged."

So, apparently Éditions Moulinsart still remains a thing for publications?

However, how does this organisation (or whatever it is) differ to The Fondation Hergé?

In which case, what is the Tintin PressClub?
