WHO WE ARE

MIG Capital Partners and Media Investment Group (“MIG”) was founded by Richard Cooperstein, an experienced media and technology executive, investor, and founder. MIG was built with a clear mission: to partner with transformative companies and help them scale intelligently, ethically, and globally.

MIG is a partnership of investors, technologists, and operators who use venture capital and private equity as a catalyst for innovation, disciplined growth, and long-term value creation. The firm combines strategic insight, operating experience, and global relationships to help businesses navigate inflection points and unlock durable enterprise value.

MIG’s principals have supported ventures across the lifecycle, from early-stage startups to growth-stage platforms and established enterprises, including multiple businesses that have achieved successful exits and/or valuations exceeding US$1 billion.

MIG invests in, advises, and builds alongside companies with distinctive growth characteristics—particularly where technology, distribution shifts, and new business models are reshaping industries.

Technology, entertainment IP, digital media, social networking, eCommerce, sports, and gaming formed the foundation of MIG’s early expertise. Over more than 25 years, this focus has expanded to include:

  • Performance marketing, data, and analytics
  • Consumer and retail innovation
  • SaaS and cloud infrastructure
  • Defense and space technologies
  • Financial services, healthcare, biotech, education, AI, clean energy, and sustainability

Our Mission

Partner with exceptional founders and operators, apply disciplined capital and strategic clarity, and help build category-defining enterprises at the frontier of technological change.

Where We Operate

STARTUPS & GROWTH COMPANIES

MIG partners with early and growth-stage companies at critical inflection points. We evaluate opportunities through a disciplined lens—capital efficiency, scalability, defensibility, and global relevance—and help leadership teams navigate capital formation, expansion, partnerships, and long-term value creation.

We do not simply invest.
We help companies institutionalize.

GLOBAL NETWORK & STRATEGIC ACCESS

MIG’s network spans institutional investors, sovereign entities, governments, global corporations, and technology platforms.

We leverage these relationships to:

  • Accelerate international expansion
  • Structure strategic partnerships
  • Navigate regulatory environments
  • Access capital markets
  • Position companies for acquisition or long-term scale

Our global connectivity is not promotional. It is mission critical and operational.

MEDIA, TECHNOLOGY & INFRASTRUCTURE

With deep roots in global media and platform innovation, MIG operates at the intersection of technology, distribution, and intelligence systems.

Our focus spans AI-driven platforms, cloud infrastructure, data systems, software, connected ecosystems, and emerging hardware technologies. We seek companies shaping foundational shifts—where technological acceleration meets durable business architecture.

FILM, TELEVISION & GLOBAL IP

MIG’s heritage is grounded in the world’s leading media institutions. Drawing on decades of experience across Disney, Warner Bros., Paramount, MGM, and global distribution platforms and sports assets, we understand how intellectual property scales across geographies, formats, and technologies.

We support the creation, financing, distribution, and monetization of high-value IP in an era where media, technology, and global audiences converge.

FRONTIER TECHNOLOGIES: DEFENSE, SPACE, CLEAN ENERGY & AI

MIG actively evaluates and supports companies operating at the technological frontier, where national resilience, energy transformation, artificial intelligence, and advanced infrastructure converge.

Our focus includes defense innovation, space systems and enablement technologies, clean and carbon-neutral energy solutions, and next-generation AI platforms and intelligent automation. We are particularly interested in businesses that combine breakthrough engineering with scalable commercial models and long-term strategic relevance.

We approach frontier sectors with disciplined capital allocation, regulatory awareness, and a commitment to responsible innovation, supporting technologies that strengthen global infrastructure, economic competitiveness, and sustainable growth.
