Advising organisations in the media, entertainment and sports sectors

Based in London - the world’s leading hub for the creative industries and finance - Oliver & Ohlbaum Associates (O&O) was founded in 1995 to help investors, media owners, tech companies, policy makers and sports bodies understand and respond to the emerging digital revolution.

For more than twenty years, we have been at the forefront of many of the most important changes affecting our client sectors - but you might not have heard of us.

• We have helped multichannel and on demand TV operators plan, launch and reposition; aided independent TV producers in securing their rights, enabling them to build global businesses.

• We have advised governments to adapt their policies to protect consumers, promote public purposes and to encourage competition and investment; we have advised major telcos on how best to enter the entertainment space, so as to protect and promote their connectivity activities.

• We have helped web platforms to understand and work with traditional media, and traditional media to do the same with web platforms.

• We have guided investors through the sectors we know best, identifying with them targets for investment; and have supported sports bodies in their bids to maximise their commercial potential, to adapt to changing tastes and to attract significant investment.

We measure our success in terms of the impact we have had on our clients’ businesses and the sectors they work within and the added value we have helped build. We keep ahead of the curve and challenge received wisdom across the global media, sport and entertainment sectors, but always by coming up with solutions relevant to local market conditions and tastes.
