Crypto from the Red Carpet: A Conversation with Sophie Watts

This book focuses on my conversation with
Sophie Watts, who is an Executive Chair and Co-founder of a global media company. Sophie focuses on venture creation for A-list stars, including "Mike Tyson's Legends Only League," the sports enterprise which, in November 2020, staged the Tyson-Jones fight, the eighth most profitable pay-per-view event of all time. Previously, Watts served as the President of STX Entertainment, playing an instrumental role in the company's formation and growth, including the establishment of a fully-fledged movie studio, and both reality and scripted TV studios. During her tenure, STX grew from a start-up into a multi-billion-dollar media company that includes several studios, and which secured capital from investors including private equity firms TPG and China-based Sony Capital; Tencent, the Chinese internet giant; Liberty Global, the media conglomerate; and PCCW, the global telecommunications provider.
Early in her career, Watts worked in music film, videos, and programming in London. She moved to Los Angeles in 2007, where she was a producer and financier on film projects including the award-winning documentary Bully, and the NBC show "State of Affairs". Watts has been named one of Hollywood's Top Dealmakers by Variety, listed in Fortune magazine's forty under forty, and featured in Variety's Power of Women Report, Hollywood Reporter's Women in Entertainment Power100, and in ELLE magazine's power list.
