About OML:
OML is a new media and entertainment company that partners with creators to build digital entertainment properties that impact culture; and help brands and platforms come closer to consumers. Headquartered in Mumbai, India with teams in Russia, Poland, and UAE; OML was founded in 2002 to book and manage artists across all genres of entertainment.
Today, OML’s operations span a prolific, award-winning content studio that packages and produces shows for OTT platforms, and a global brand solutions business, outside of the talent management practice that has evolved to roster comedians, vloggers, streamers, influencers, writers, and directors.
