Riaz Mehta is Founder, CEO at Cryptoknights. An "Emmy" award nominee whose previous productions were on Netflix, HBO, etc. and has a track record of selling shows to 50+ countries.
I am a serial entrepreneur and always looking for ways in which we can innovate, improve how business is conducted and ultimately improve people's lives. Back in 2004 I noticed that companies weren't focusing on creating high-calibre content as a marketing pillar for their brands, and I felt this was a big opportunity, so I created Imagine Group to fill that gap. My goal was bold: to become the leading Media and Entertainment business in Asia, serving clients across the globe.
My vision and perseverance, coupled with a truly great team, have enabled me to develop a business model that has stood the test of time and won numerous international awards including Asian TV Awards and a nomination for the International Emmy Awards. Imagine Group shows broadcast in over 40 countries on major broadcast networks such as Neflix, Sony and Fox.
My latest venture is AllRites, an online marketplace to buy and sell Film, TV and Sports Content Rights. Our platform was created to address the pain points faced by professional content creators around the world to efficiently find the right set of buyers for their content. We optimise revenue for content owners and reduce distribution costs by up to 75%. Broadcasters gain efficiency and ease in search and discovery of great new content on a global scale. In short it is the AliBaba for content.
