Lumiere Ventures combines the principles of venture capital with the mechanics of film rights distribution.
The founders have built their careers across both industries: Richard Lechartier brings over 20 years of experience in the film industry with one succesful exit under his belt, while Xavier Collins has over 10 years of experience founding, building and scaling high-growth tech companies.
Lumiere Ventures specialises in acquiring intellectual property (IP), specifically film rights, from renowned Hollywood producers.
We focus on highly commercial content, particularly action films led by notable talents like Stallone and Nic Cage. Leveraging these assets, we strategically sub-license rights to prominent streaming platforms (Amazon, Netflix etc…) across key territories like the UK, France, and Australia.
Proftis are reinvested in acquiring further content, establishing a catalogue of rights that form a base of consistent future cash flows.
