WME

WME is a talent and literary agency representing artists, content creators, athletes and brands across entertainment and sports. The firm, which has been operating for more than 125 years, works across books, digital media, fashion, film, food, music, sports, television and theater, helping clients grow their businesses, develop their intellectual property and bring cultural projects to completion.

The agency's work divides into several functions. Talent and artist representation provides advocacy for clients across the full range of media and sport. The music division books more than 40,000 tour dates annually for artists worldwide. A brand and partnerships practice helps artists, athletes and companies leverage their intellectual property, while project development and packaging brings work to life across film, television, theater and books.

WME describes its role as that of advocate, curator and connector, and measures its impact in careers launched, stories told and cultural moments rather than in transactions closed. Technical areas of focus include digital media, content creation and intellectual property development. The firm operates globally, with a stated scope of expertise covering nearly every facet of entertainment and sports.
