Let's talk rights, royalties, and the next era of distribution.
Arjun Mendhi and Mehdi Mimouni will be on the ground in Cannes May 12 to 18. We're hosting a panel at The Viewpoint and taking 1:1 meetings throughout the week.
Catch us live at The Viewpoint.
A 45-minute conversation on how AI agents are reshaping international sales prep, with Arjun and Sonia Mehandjiyska of Electric Entertainment.
How AI Agents Give Top Sales Teams an Unfair Advantage
Avails decks built in hours, not weeks. Royalty queries answered before the buyer asks. Rights conflicts caught before contract signature. See how the most data-fluent international sales teams are using AI agents to compress prep time and close gaps that used to need a full back office.
Meet the team.
Both founders are in Cannes for the full window. Coffee on the Croisette, breakfast meetings, panel-side conversations, whatever works for your schedule.
Leads strategy, partnerships, and Molten's vision for the modern rights and royalties stack. Talk to Arjun about distribution architecture, AI in international sales, and where the next 18 months go for mid-size distributors.
Book with Arjun
Building Molten's presence across Europe and the Middle East. Talk to Mehdi about regional licensing workflows, pan-European co-production rights, and what catalogue owners in EMEA are getting wrong about FAST and AVOD royalty automation.
Book with MehdiWhat we'd love to talk about.
Three weeks of catalogue calls and conversations with rights teams compressed into the topics most worth your hour at MDF.
Hybrid deal structures
Theatrical, PVOD, FAST and AVOD, territory by territory. The avails workflows most teams are still using were built for a simpler era. What's breaking, and what a clean multi-window view looks like.
Performance-based licensing
When fees depend on viewership data from 15+ platforms with different reporting cadences, a spreadsheet is a liability. How the royalty pipeline needs to change before AVOD eats more of the deal value.
The consolidation effect
Netflix and WBD, Paramount's counter-offer, fewer buyers, larger and more complex rights structures. What mid-size distributors are doing to stay competitive when the buyer pool keeps shrinking.
AI in rights and royalties
Where AI agents actually save time in distribution ops, where they don't, and what data foundation has to be in place first. Not a trend talk, a working-team perspective.
