Siebert Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: SIEB) (“Siebert”), a leader in financial services, proudly announces the acquisition of Gebbia Entertainment LLC. This strategic move enhances Siebert’s dynamic portfolio, extending its reach into the vibrant realms of music, entertainment, and media.

The acquisition includes a business partnership with GAMMA Media and L.A. Reid LLC for the rights to SIMIEN, a talented group of three sisters from Los Angeles. Managed by the globally renowned Akon – singer, songwriter, producer, and Advisory Board Member of Siebert Financial – SIMIEN is set to reach new heights under this innovative collaboration.

Akon, with his extensive influence and visionary approach, not only manages SIMIEN but is known for his groundbreaking work in the music industry and his philanthropic efforts across the African continent. He partners with Nick Jarjour, a prominent music executive known for his keen talent-spotting abilities and successful collaborations with top artists. Jarjour has played a key role in shaping the careers of several high-profile musicians, bringing his expertise and innovative strategies to this partnership with Akon.

L.A. Reid, an iconic figure in the music industry, brings decades of experience as a record executive, producer and songwriter. The launch of SIMIEN’s first album will benefit immensely from Reid’s expertise and industry connections.

David Gebbia, a leader at Siebert, expressed his excitement about the acquisition: “This partnership between entertainment and the financial services industry is fairly unique and a part of Siebert’s commitment to innovation. Combining our entertainment expertise with our company's long history of financial acumen opens up really exciting opportunities in music, entertainment, and finance. Ultimately, we think this will serve both traditional and non-traditional audiences.”

Adding to the impressive leadership team is Oscar-nominated, award-winning television and film producer Kaj Larsen. Recently, joining Siebert to help spearhead the film and documentary division, Larsen’s extensive experience and relationships with major platforms such as CNN, Netflix, and Amazon will be instrumental in creating unique content that blends finance, music, entertainment, and sports. His expertise promises to tell Siebert’s story in compelling ways, crafting narratives that resonate with diverse audiences and showcasing the dynamic intersections of these industries.

Siebert’s acquisition of Gebbia Entertainment LLC marks a significant milestone in its journey, promising a future filled with innovative ventures and transformative growth in the entertainment sector.
