Night Ventures

Night Ventures is a venture studio that starts companies rather than only funding them. Each one pairs an operator who can build the product with a well-known online personality whose audience is likely to buy it.

The idea behind the model is that trust on the internet runs through people more than platforms. A new brand can therefore reach customers from its first day. The studio is part of Night Media, a talent management company.

What Night Ventures offers

• Company building: develops products and launches them with an operator and a creator partner.
• Consumer brands: its ventures include beauty, confectionery, fragrance, snacks, food, collectibles and menopause care.
• Digital and gaming ventures: includes a holding company for Roblox games and a studio building Fortnite games.
• AI and data ventures: includes real-world data for AI labs and brand protection with threat intelligence.

Who it works with

Operators who want to build companies, and creators with large audiences. Investors in the studio include several well-known venture firms.
