- Verifly is a New York based disruptive financial-technology company, which initially specialized in providing insurance services to drone operators (such as aerial event photographers). Via its mobile application based platform, it was the first to be able to bridge many of the compliance gaps between drone operators, insurers and government aviation licensing bodies, by using the drone operator's GPS equipped mobile device to determine operation location. This in turn enabled verification of key compliance considerations, such as proximity to registered aerodromes and densely populated areas, which necessitates elevated compliance, such as the operator holding an FAA recognised pilot licence. Additionally the location detection facility allows for the recognition of locale-specific "last light"; an aviation term which excludes most operators from continuing operations at that location, unless a higher level of licence is held by the operator. This enabled the insurer to tailor the time-of-day that policies might be purchased, or request verification that the higher level of licensing required for such operations is held, prior to policy issuance. Leveraging this time-of-day policy issuance capability has also meant the insurer is able to uniquely offer "on-demand" insurance, with policies available for as little as 30 minutes in coverage duration. The organisation is now moving to offer general business insurance based on the same platform.

- Verve Talent and Literary Agency (Verve is an America talent and literary agency based in Los Angeles, CA. Since its creation 2010, it has proved itself to be one of the most respected and rapidly growing entertainment agencies in the business. Verve represents some of the business’ biggest names in film and television including Colin Trevorrow (Jurassic World), Brian Vaughan (Under the Dome), Aaron Guzikowski (Prisoners) and Victoria Strouse (Finding Dory). The agency also has more top 10 scripts on the Black List than any of it's competition. Since its beginnings it has grown to 16 agents, representing writers and directors in both the television and motion picture space. After post-merger layoffs hit in January 2010, film lit agents, Bryan Besser, Adam Levine, and Bill Weinstein, left WME and set out to launch their own agency. “One of the unknowns was when we walked out the doors of our former employers, we didn’t necessarily have a destination,” Levine says. “So we found ourselves at a Coffee Bean, running our operations at that location on Santa Monica Blvd. in West Hollywood for the initial start of Verve.” In April 2013, the partners moved to their second suite in Carthay Circle. Amy Retzinger became Verve's fourth partner, founding their rapidly expanding TV division. In October 2015 Verve promoted agent Adam Weinstein to become the agency’s fifth partner. Weinstein guided the career’s of Colin Tervorrow and Derek Connolly from the indie Safety not Guranteed to Jurassic World (the biggest movie of all time, not made by James Cameron). He began his career in 2002 at UTA where he began as a trainee and made his way up through the ranks. Verve hatched Verve Ventures, an internal global business development arm, in March of 2015 and hired Amy Beecroft to run it. Wielding an impressive resume, she’s a veteran of First Look/Overseas Film Group, HBO, GreeneStreet Films, and FilmNation. Verve Venture’s will create strategic partnerships in international and domestic film and television. It aims to delve into finance and sales, digital distribution, and developing new technologies such as Virtual Reality. As of January 2010 some of Verve’s top clients include David Elliot & Paul Lovett (writers of GI Joe,Four Brothers), Mike Finch (writer of Predators in post production at Fox with Robert Rodriguez producing), Eric & Jon Hoeber (writers of Whiteout and Red, a Robert Schwentke film that starts shooting next week, and Battleshipfor Hasbro/Uni/Pete Berg); Jay Lavender (writer of The Break-Up), Jason Lew (writer of the Untitled Gus Van Sant Project in production), Dennis McNicholas (writer of Land of the Lost), Brad Peyton (director of Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore in post at Warners), Darren Bousman (director of Saw II, Saw III, Saw IV, and Mothers Day in post production).)
