Live Nation Entertainment

RSE is a private investment firm that combines a deep understanding of a founder’s mission with the strategic resources of our network to elevate businesses at inflection points. This approach has transformed companies across sectors: We’ve taken the International Champions Cup from an idea in a conference room to a global soccer platform with 140 million viewers; we helped transform a founder’s PowerPoint presentation into the world’s premier drone racing circuit; and we shaped the growth strategy of scalable restaurants that have iconic brands with cult followings. But don't take our word for it. Hear what our founders have to say.

BNVC partners with passionate, diverse entrepreneurs that challenge conventional ideas of live entertainment – creating joy and meaningful interaction in a free and always changing environment. Night or day, underdog or superstar. We enable others to blaze new trails and support an open and inclusive society, as well as allowing us to be part of the action that has always been the backbone of our brand. We invest in startups that are related to the nightlife & entertainment industry. Bringing people together in real life.
