Danny Cohen: From Leading the BBC to Leading Venture Capitalist |E1079
Danny Cohen, Len Blavatnik, David Hockney, Harry Stebbings
Access Entertainment, backed by Len Blavatnik, rejects vertical-specific investing to target "attention and eyeballs" across a diverse portfolio ranging from gaming startups like Triple Dot to immersive theater projects featuring David Hockney. The firm navigates a fragmented media landscape where legacy broadcasters struggle against digital platforms and generative AI by prioritizing long-form content and applying strict selectivity criteria to founders who demonstrate extreme drive and emotional intelligence. Looking ahead, the strategy anticipates market consolidation and emphasizes physical shared experiences as a counter to the "loneliness pandemic," while maintaining a disciplined approach to talent management and cultural preservation.
