DealMaker and Dolphin announced a strategic partnership designed to expand access to growth capital for celebrity, influencer, and entertainment-led consumer product and lifestyle companies. The partnership brings together DealMaker’s power and experience as the clear market leader in online capital raising with Dolphin’s extensive marketing capabilities and deep relationships across the Creator economy, traditional Hollywood, and the broader entertainment industry. Together, the companies aim to help founders not only raise capital, but also expand audiences, grow customer bases, and build engaged communities – transforming investors into passionate users and users into long-term stakeholders-while building the awareness, credibility, and cultural relevance required to scale successful consumer-facing businesses. Under the partnership, Dolphin and DealMaker will source opportunities both within Dolphin’s own roster as well as across Dolphin’s expansive network of talent, creators, managers, agents, ambassadors, and entertainment entrepreneurs. The collaboration is designed to support capital raises across a range of asset types, including consumer products and lifestyle brands, primarily at growth and expansion stages, as well as established businesses pursuing their next phase of scale.
