Mumbai: ITW Universe, a sports, entertainment, and media consulting group, has announced the launch of its specialist legal and compliance advisory division – ITW Arc. Designed to address the fast-changing and increasingly complex regulatory environment, ITW Arc will focus on safeguarding client interests and enabling brands to make informed, compliance-driven decisions across the sports, media, and entertainment industries.
Building on ITW Universe’s reputation as a full-stack consultancy, ITW Arc will provide comprehensive advisory support through a team of legal experts, compliance professionals, and regulatory specialists. The division aims to act as a trusted partner for brands and rights holders, offering guidance to navigate legal complexities, mitigate regulatory risks, and strengthen operations across India and global markets.
Unlike conventional consultancies, ITW Arc combines compliance expertise with brand-building and marketing advisory, delivering holistic support on issues related to deals, campaigns, partnerships, and commercial rights. This integrated approach will help clients operate, grow, and innovate with greater confidence.
Joylashmi Das, General Counsel, ITW, who heads the division, said, “At ITW Arc, we go beyond drafting agreements or ticking compliance boxes. We are partners in progress for our clients and brands, enabling business growth by helping them put the right guardrails in place. We anticipate challenges, close loopholes, and ensure that we keep our clients updated with the latest developments.”
Bhairav Shanth, Co-founder, ITW, added, “Our vision at ITW Universe has always been to be a seamless single window service provider for our clients, catering to their every need. While some brands may have specialist teams that provide them direct access to advisory on compliance and legal matters, many do not have that luxury, and the mission of ITW Arc is to provide them that guidance and counsel, making us true partners in their progress.”
