Moment House is the livestreaming startup that launched in October 2020 with the likes of Scooter Braun, Troy Carter and Patreon CEO Jack Conte as investors, before raising another $12m in August this year.
Now it’s using some of that funding to expand into Japan, through a partnership with digital ticketing company Zaiko. They have launched Moment House Japan to focus on ticketed livestreams, with events already announced for artists Jin Akanishi, Jessi, and Billkin and PP Krit.
Akanishi is from Japan, Jessi is Korean-American and Billkin and PP Krit are from Thailand, so there’s already a sense of Moment House Japan casting its net more widely than just its home market for artists.
Tickets for these livestreams will be sold both to fans in Asia and globally.
