gamma. – the artist-first multimedia platform providing creative and business services across all artistic and commercial formats – announced that Alpha Wave Global has joined the company as a strategic partner and investor, contributing additional capital to accelerate gamma.’s innovation and expansion.
This funding comes less than a year after gamma’s March 2023 launch and caps a rapid string of activity and advancements the company has made in its young history.
Alpha Wave Global joined founding investors Eldridge Industries and Apple, both of which welcome the addition and the vote of confidence in gamma.’s goals and vision that comes with it. And the combined support of these backers provides gamma. The opportunity to build on its first-year success with additional capabilities in music, direct-to-consumer, and media, underpinned by a strong technical foundation and global perspective.
