ABOUT STELLWAGEN VENTURES
We are a strategic, global venture firm brokering deals across music, sports, media and entertainment. Our ethos is to promote a win/win model that supports shared success in everything we do.

Context on our name: Stellwagen Bank is a protected National Marine Sanctuary wedged between Cape Ann on Boston’s north shore, and the tip of New England’s Cape Cod. Renowned for its rich marine life, it's a place where people go to whale watch and where anglers go to catch large tuna and striped sea bass. The beauty is, most of the year it's protected fishing grounds, that is, catch and release. That's where our winning formula kicks in. The fish win. The fishermen win. Everybody wins. Everybody's happy. That's our model at Stellwagen Ventures.
