by an intermediary from Bucknell University in Santa Monica, CA, USA

Founded in 2014 in New York City, with operating roots dating back to 2008 in Manila, this premium creative production agency specializes in motion-led storytelling for global brands and leading studios. The company delivers culturally fluent, visually compelling content that helps brands connect with emerging markets and niche audiences, driving engagement and brand impact. Its client roster includes world-class names such as IBM, Google, Microsoft, Pepsi, and other internationally recognized organizations, reflecting a strong reputation for quality, reliability, and creative excellence. The company is fully owned by both sellers, who are seeking to divest up to 100% of their equity stake. The sellers are open to remaining involved for up to three months to ensure a smooth transition before fully exiting. Confidentiality is a concern for the Seller as she seeks just the right buyer. Business location and name will be shared once a qualified Buyer prospect is vetted. NDA required to receive comprehensive Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM) crafted by ProNova Partners. Detailed Information Growth & Expansion: The Agency has a strong opportunity to accelerate growth and stabilize revenue by evolving from a premium project-based motion studio into a scalable, performance-aligned creative partner. By repositioning around measurable business outcomes, introducing retainer-based client relationships, and standardizing core service offerings into repeatable packages, the business can increase recurring revenue, improve forecasting, and protect margins. Implementing a disciplined go-to-market engine beyond referrals, supported by structured sales processes, partnerships, and thought leadership, can further drive consistent pipeline growth. Operationally, enhanced delivery discipline, capacity optimization, and selective AI enablement can expand margins while maintaining creative quality, creating a more scalable and resilient platform for long-term growth. Seller Financing: TBD if structure and terms are acceptable. Support & Training: Up to 3 months – specific terms for transition support can be negotiated. The Seller wishes to facilitate a successful and smooth transfer of the Business. Reason for Selling: The sellers intend to spend more time with their family.

Thanks for the tag ^redacted‌. I ran an animation agency and will put the word out to my network. I will say though, the whole industry sees AI as coming to fully automate this process very soon (if not already), so these sales are tough. But will definitely reach out to my network.

Hi Shawn, Thanks for your comments here. I agree with you, there's a sea change coming in this space when it comes to tech - especially in animation. The equipment in question is most often used in action/thriller films, and ads. So I expect some durability there. Will share an NDA shortly.
