Media & Entertainment
For creators building media companies.
For creator companies with representation and capital, and the managers, investors and holding companies behind them. You bring the content and the audience. We connect the engine that grows the business. When it's done, it's yours.
Your audience can support more than your system can handle.
Brand partnerships, licensing, products, formats, live: the deals are getting bigger faster than the business that holds them, and most of it still runs on email and someone's memory. To grow, the system behind the business has to scale with it: smarter and connected.
That's the IP Growth System™, from Apex Global Agency and Symbonic. See what's inside →
What the system runs.
Your tools stay, connected in.
Develop · deals and partnerships
Creative and business development
Developing the idea, creative and business affairs, option agreements and their deadlines, and packaging.
Partnerships and deal-making
Co-producers, financiers, talent and studios, and the early deals in one record: what you own, what's on offer and what's signed.
Distribute and monetize
Digital experience
The places where your audience meets what you make.
Commerce
Every way you earn: licensing, brand partnerships, products, formats, live, and the deals behind each.
It starts up front. If development, business affairs and options aren't right, nothing you take to market holds. Deal-making runs through all of it, with AI working inside the system.
How it starts
Start with the map.
Gear 1 is a two-week growth map you keep. Go further only if it makes sense.
Gear 1
Growth map
We look at what your business owns, how it earns today and where growth leaks, then write the map: what to connect and fix first. Keep the map either way.
Gear 2
Roadmap and fixes
Your growth roadmap and budget, and the most urgent problems in the map fixed.
Gear 3
Growth pod
A small Symbonic team joins yours and assembles the system inside your business. Then own your setup, license the platform, or have us run it.
Then it's yours: own your setup, license the platform, or have us run it. What's inside and who owns what →
Talk to usBuilt at studio scale.
Symbonic built a studio-scale development system on Symbonic Creator Cloud™ for AGBO, an artist-led independent film and television studio.
The IP Growth System assembles the same technology around a creator-led business.
Questions
Who is Symbonic for?
Creator companies in media and entertainment: creator-led businesses that already have representation and capital: the creator-founder, the people running the company, the managers and agents, and the investors and holding companies behind it. Studios, networks and partner firms work with Symbonic too, through Studio installs and licensing.
What do we get from Gear 1?
A written growth map, in two weeks: what your business owns, how it earns today, where growth leaks, and what to connect and fix first. It's yours to keep whether or not you go on to Gear 2.
What does it cost?
Every engagement is scoped and priced per business. Email us and we'll set out what Gear 1 would cost for yours. Gear 2 and the growth pod are scoped after the map.
Do we have to replace the tools we already run?
No. Your finance, distribution and rights-management tools stay, and we connect them into the system.
Do we own what you build?
You choose, and it's set in the deal: own the setup we build for you outright, license the platform, or have us run it for you. Your audience, your data and your IP stay yours.
Can I sign up for the software?
No. There is no sign-up and no self-serve plan. Every engagement starts with a conversation: email info@symbonic.com.
Studio, network, media group or partner firm? There are other ways to work with Symbonic.
