Our Story
Based near the famous Reeperbahn strip in Hamburg, Germany, where the Beatles started off, Aviator Management has partnered with some of the greatest artists in the modern era. From Mark Knopfler to Bob Marley, from Herbert von Karajan to Live Aid, from Scorpions to Elvis Costello, from Glenn Gould to Def Leppard, Aviator is trusted by some of the most prestigious acts of all time.
Aviator is the world leader in the location and enforcement of audio-visual rights and is the fast solution to deliver and monetize audio-visual premium digital products. Aviator sources, clears and releases digital premium content and creates complete VOD catalogues for its artists and clients.
The company also claims user-generated content (UGC) on YouTube and monetizes or blocks to ensure sustainable control of its clients’ AV rights as well as to drive viewership to their official channels.
