Digital Media

Digital convergence is now. Deals are about data, infrastructure or content production, management or ownership. Data is no longer merely transported but is manipulated. Although TV is still the go-to device for viewing, the rapid decline in standard ‘live’ TV watching practices and a growth in bespoke online provision across multiple devices, especially amongst the younger audiences. The investors and buyers of market participants are always looking for firms which disrupt and facilitate the integration of data and its sources with content.

Digital Media and Internet businesses include technology-driven companies with both subscription and transaction-based business models across all on-line subsectors, including gaming, marketing, customer research, content and communications.

Polestar works both with businesses at the cutting edge in areas such as content generation gaming etc., as well as those transitioning from traditional models with manual processes to a digital presence using automated processes, advising on planning, fundraising or exit strategies.

What Our Clients Say

“We were delighted with the debt advisory support we received from Polestar. We were looking for flexible banking facilities to support the growth of People Value and Polestar lead the identification of several banking partners and supported us in tailoring the facilities“

Pascal Wittet, Ethos Partners

“I was very pleased with the advice, guidance and support provided by the team. They were very effective at finding the right buyer, and negotiating a successful sale. However, in retrospect it was equally important that they were enjoyable to work with, making the experience considerably less stressful than it potentially could have been.”
