A New Venture for Creatives: Nicholas Parasram and Justin Kan Launch Thin Ice Entertainment
San Francisco, USAMon Nov 25 2024
Meet Thin Ice Entertainment, a fresh take on artist management and production. Founded by Nicholas Parasram, an artist manager and investor, and Justin Kan, co-founder of Twitch, this new venture aims to bridge the gap between artists and emerging technologies. They're starting with a lineup of talented producers like Stryv, Marcus van Wattum, Zone, and RE/MIND. The goal? To help creatives build sustainable businesses around their work.
Parasram and Kan aren't new to the startup game. They've worked together at Goat Capital, investing in early-stage tech companies. Parasram has a history of managing creators and securing deals, while Kan is known for co-founding Twitch, which Amazon snapped up for nearly a billion dollars.
Thin Ice isn't just about management. They're setting up an "incubation lab" to help clients develop new ideas and businesses. The plan is to use their startup experience to supercharge growth in the entertainment industry. They want creatives to express themselves freely and make a living from their art.
