Galaxia SM (Korean: 갤럭시아에스엠; stylized as galaxiaSM) is a South Korean sports marketing and management company under Trinity Asset Management[4] and SM Entertainment with advertising, broadcast programming, content creation, digital marketing, event management, and production business.

History[edit]

Established in November 2004, the company specialized in sports marketing, channels, content, and publishing rights and was listed on the KOSPI market in October 2006.[5][6] The largest shareholder is Trinity Asset Management, an affiliate of the Hyosung Group, with a 22.4% stake in the company and a 37.1% stake, including affiliated parties.[5]

On August 25, 2015, IB Worldwide, and entertainment company SM Entertainment signed a partnership through mutual investment.[4] IB Worldwide announced through the board of directors on the same day that it had decided to raise 11.5 billion won from SM and 8.9 billion won from affiliates of Hyosung Group and changed the company name to Galaxia SM.[7] SM also announced a third-party capital increase of 6.5 billion won for IB Worldwide, marking the first business partnership in South Korea between a sports and entertainment company.[8] Shim Woo-taek revealed that the two companies combined will be able to develop a variety of content and contribute to the national interest by expanding their scope to the global market.[9] Kim Young-min stated that the partnership would be trying to pioneer a global market with a new marketing and business model through the combination of sports and entertainment.[10] The two companies are also expecting various synergies from this strategic alliance by developing sportainment broadcasting content, merchandising businesses, body management system development, and digital marketing business through a multi-channel network (MCN).[11]
