Passion. Experience. Diligence.

Frederick first began his journey in startup investing upon the implementation of Obama’s 2012 JOB’s Act, making it easier for smaller firms to responsibly make an initial public offering (IPO), allowing entrepreneurs to raise up to $50 million through regulated “mini public offerings,” and creating a national marketplace for securities-based crowdfunding. This experience of crowdfund investing in startup companies motivated Frederick to also experiment on the other side by inventing apps and other businesses of his own focused on Arts & Entertainment and in Digital Media & Technology. He found that these individual fields complemented each other’s in surprising, and what turned out to be inseparable, ways.

Technology was changing the arts and vice versa. This made them eager to cultivate their own practice, one that would effectively intersect their expertise with their respective interests. They believe that what wins a case and what makes a creative business thrive is the passion that drives it. Choosing to specialize in a field means that you are completely devoted to it; that you will protect it as if it were your own. That is the energy that sets them apart.
