RTG Ventures Inc. (RTGV.PK)
Welcome to RTGV Ventures
RTG Ventures Inc. (RTGV) is a NASDAQ/OTC:QB listed company listed company with a unique model that enables video rights owners to control and monetize their assets through internet and mobile internet distribution. RTGV also enables destination site owners to source top quality media content without the need to negotiate rights for each media item they stream.
RTGV is structured as three trading divisions, each of which contains both wholly-owned corporations and joint ventures, with independent business plans, strategies and management. In addition to servicing their discrete markets, these corporations all contribute to RTGV’s total product offering for media rights owners.
At the heart of RTGV’s total product offering is a Monetization Platform which allows rights owners to define and tag media content in detail, set and enforce rights management and distribution rules, receive payment on distribution and obtain detailed analytics in real time.
RTGV’s three operating divisions are:
- Media Systems: technology to monetize media assets
- Payment Systems: technology to take and administer payments
- Solutions: marketing, sales and other services that add value to the total product offering

Digitization Services
With so much great content sitting in cans in archive rooms, being able to digitize archive content for streaming online is an essential part of helping rights owners to monetize their content. Through its content partner, Watchmaker Films, RTG Ventures can deliver truly cost effective solutions for preparing archive content of any kind for internet broadcast and, we even have creative solutions for off-setting costs too.
Services include:
CloudChannel is a web-based application that changes the way streaming media is monetized online. CloudChannel disrupts the traditional blanket media license model by providing media rights owners the tools they need to mass-syndicate content themselves. This ensures they get paid for exactly what gets played and gives them a far higher return than they would hope to get using YouTube or other destination sites. Payment methods and Micro Rights Management® tools are integrated into each stream allowing for totally transparent royalty audits in real-time.

Management & Vision
In a world where many consumers are willing to pay more for a cup of coffee than they are for recorded music, a new approach to remunerating artists for their creations is required. There’s no purer or rawer art form than live performance, so it’s this part of artists’ repertoire that RTG Ventures has turned its attention. Our vision to make live music available anywhere, any time and in any format is designed to keep fans connected with their artists at their convenience but always in a way that respects that artists need to feed their creativity.
Illegal downloads and illegal file shares are sucking the life out of recorded music, but live music can’t be copied or shared. If you’re not at the gig, you’re just not at the gig. Until now. By making live music available online, with proper models for monetizing performances RTG Ventures creates new revenue opportunities for bands and their management. We connect fans with their bands and offer multiple ways of providing “free” content that still remunerates its creators.
To do this, we’ve made it our mission to develop cutting-edge products and services that enable media rights owners to manage, promote and monetize their assets online. Our systems allow rights owners to present new, exciting content to consumers with sponsor supported pay-per-view models which minimize the risk of piracy.
