well, meanwhile it is a product made by Fuji (see the link above from 'brbo' to my test report).

It is a quite complicated thing: It is not under license of Agfa (=Agfa-Gevaert in Belgium
www.agfa.com ), but it is under license of the AgfaPhoto Holding in Germany (which is a completely different company).
The company which has this license and is responsible for this film (they give the order and money to Fuji to produce it, they do the international distribution) is Lupus Imaging in Germany.

That has been the case for some time: Before Lupus Imaging switched the manufacturer they bought film from Kodak. During this period AgfaPhoto CT Precisa has been Kodak Elitechrome 100.
Then about almost a year ago Lupus switched to Fuji, because of Kodaks decision to stop slide film production (of course they know it earlier as one of Kodaks bigger clients).
The current Lomography X-Pro 100 is still Elitechrome 100. Interestingly to see which film they will offer when their stocks run dry....
