APAC Based Digital and Social Media Network ‘VS Media’ Announce Strategic Investment and Partnership with LA Creative Venture Studio ‘MeeshQ’
21 February 2024 - 12:00AM
VS Media Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: VSME, the “Company”), a leader
in managing a global network of digital creators, today announced
its newest partnership with MeeshQ, a Los Angeles-based creative
venture studio. Through this partnership, VSME will connect
MeeshQ’s globally renowned talents and creators with emerging local
brands in Asia Pacific for brand sponsorship, product venture and
other commercial opportunities, as well as helping talents launch
their own products in the region. VSME is making a strategic
investment in MeeshQ as part of the partnership. The financial
terms of the transaction are private and undisclosed.
“We are very focused on our clients expanding outside the United
States and for them to be able to reach new audiences. VS Media and
our partnerships in Greater China and Asia Pacific create a huge
opportunity for our clients to do just that,” said Jeff
Hood, Founder & CEO of MeeshQ.
“Connecting brands with talents through engaging digital content
is at the heart of what we do at VS Media. We’ve built a robust
practice in the Greater China region and are always looking for
growth-oriented partnerships,” said Ivy Wong, Founder and
CEO of VS Media.
“MeeshQ has an impressive track record of activating brand
partnership and product venture opportunities for its talent. I am
particularly excited about working with Jeff and his team to enable
collaboration between Mike Tyson, Dennis Rodman and other U.S.
talent, with brands in the fast-growing Asia Pacific region.”
Upon formalization of the partnership, MeeshQ and VSME plan to
launch a number of global ventures in 2024 with high-profile
American contemporary talents in Asia Pacific. VS Media will be
MeeshQ's exclusive partner in the region.
MeeshQ will be allocating portions of the investment to further
expand its international presence, beginning with offices in Hong
Kong and Shanghai – with future expansion plans into the UAE, KSA,
and Africa in late 2024.
Since its inception in 2023 by venture capitalist Jeff Hood,
MeeshQ has demonstrated a curated data driven approach to celebrity
ventures. The company has created a unique model for talent to
operate in established and emerging global markets, enabling the
launch of their own products spanning across music, fashion &
apparel.
Hood is best known for having helped onboard and integrate
celebrity talent – including legendary boxer Mike Tyson and former
NBA star Dennis Rodman – into emerging markets such as digital art,
blockchain, and immersive gaming experiences powered by VR (virtual
reality) and AR (augmented reality).
Hood’s creative vision for MeeshQ is rooted in a “venture
factory” approach that is focused on building brand IP by
leveraging efficient use of capital and Artificial Intelligence.
His approach aims to determine the best product fit and target
audience through a model that brings products to market faster and
more efficiently than traditional celebrity venture models, while
also ensuring the company’s clients have long-term equity in owning
the brands they promote.
