Case Studies

Music & Live

The world of music is ever-growing and evolving. With the consistent introduction of varying revenue streams and distribution channels, the opportunity for profit grows, but so does the complexity. We take pride in clearly explaining and navigating the often foggy landscape of entertainment and its relationship to music industry professionals of all types.

We help clients in live, tickets, recording, publishing, licensing and distribution, sponsorship and merchandising.

Television, Film & Theater

The way people consume entertainment is constantly in flux, so the business models must adapt quickly. Unit1 Ventures strives to anticipate these changes so you can focus more on creating the performance of a lifetime.

Among our clients are producers, theatre owners, venue owners, directors, writers, animators, and many other industry talents.

We negotiate development, production, financing, and sales & distribution agreements. Tailoring each according to a project’s scope, size, and budget, we secure the appropriate creative rights for all talents involved.

Intellectual Property

Ideas, tangible or not, are the most important things to protect in today’s competitive creative market. With so many channels and the constantly evolving usage of copyright, we specialize in protecting and valuing creative works in the digital world.

We work with a network of global legal specialists to manage trademarks, copyrights, patents and litigation. And if your idea has been infringed upon, we can help negotiate the best possible licensing and settlement agreements.

Digital Media & Technology

The internet, software, and technology are so pervasive that we can’t remember having ever lived without them. They make our lives simpler, but behind the curtain are fluctuating challenges in protection and monetization; challenges that our firm stays two steps ahead of.

Since the first MP3 files hit FTP sites, we helped engineers, inventors, major rights holders, and entrepreneurs develop, license, sell, and maintain ownership over their creations. We’ve also negotiated global media licenses and partnership agreements for larger investment companies looking for their unicorn.

MP3 & ARM

Today ARM is recognised as a world leader in semiconductor design with its IP used in billions of devices worldwide. In the late 90s, ARM was seen as a small British start-up with an interesting product and an unusual business model. Key to delivering growth for ARM was securing “design-wins” where the company’s processors and designs would be used in new and innovative products.
