Where we can help
Great stories
are the beginning.
When rights, audience data, your channels and your partners sit in different places, it’s harder to see what your catalog is worth and where it can go next.
Turn viewers into customers.
Connect content, community and commerce so your audience can buy, join and come back.
Find the right partners for the work.
Pursue licensing, co-production, brand and distribution partnerships with a team that can negotiate and structure the terms.
Start with the opportunity
in front of you.
A catalog that could earn more. A format ready to travel. A brand partner who could fund the next project. We agree on the work your business needs first.
What we do
Three divisions.
One Apex Global.
Each division has a distinct job. Work with the one you need, or bring them together when the opportunity calls for it.
CONNECT
Agency
We represent companies and talent in licensing, brand and distribution conversations, finding opportunities and structuring the deals that fit your next stage.
- Licensing and brand partnerships
- Co-production and distribution opportunities
- Negotiation and written deal terms
Representation fees apply to the deals we source, under written terms.
BUILD
Accelerator Studio
We connect your content, audience data and commerce, then keep improving how people discover your work, buy and return.
- Audience, community and direct-to-fan commerce
- Catalog, rights and content systems
- Testing, automation and visibility in AI answers
Scoped work, a written plan, and systems your business owns.
LAUNCH
Ventures
We help bring a new series, format or brand to life, with a team that builds and relationships that support the launch.
- New series, formats and brands
- Spin-offs, products and experiences
- Licensing and financing introductions
Services work never takes equity. Any equity, licensing or revenue-share in a new venture is agreed separately in writing.
The Accelerator Studio builds the work. The Agency develops the relationships and deals. Ventures brings both together for something new.
Relevant work
One catalog.
One company.
Founder-led media and IP catalog
Apex built a new parent company above a founder’s books, community formats and brands, cataloguing the IP as owned, licensable assets under one brand system.
New projects, products and partnerships are in development on that foundation. This example describes company and IP design.
