Pocket Aces, a digital entertainment company, and Civic Studios, an impact-driven media studio, have announced a partnership to further their collective mission of creating positive content for the youth of India.
The partnership is aimed at creating a range of content spanning multiple genres. The collaboration further aims to captivate audiences with narratives that are not only entertaining but also thought-provoking and socially relevant.
Civic Studios will invest capital into Pocket Aces, and collaborate on creating impactful long-form content via Pocket Aces’ studio Dice Media, and in turn, Pocket Aces will take over Civic Studio’s short-form channel “Pocket Change” to add to its portfolio of owned and operated short-form channels FilterCopy, Nutshell, and Gobble. Anushka Shah, founder of Civic Studios, will also join the Board of Directors at Pocket Aces.
Commenting on the partnership, Anushka Shah, Founder of Civic Studios, said, “Our goal at Civic Studios is to create change through storytelling. Pocket Aces’s new mission towards positively influencing minds fits perfectly into that vision. We are thrilled to partner with a company that has a proven track record across multiple content channels and IPs, and that is now looking to scale up its ambition and impact. We are looking forward to working with Aditi and the Pocket Aces team in creating content that is entertaining, engaging, and empowering.”
