House of IPs is an event and entertainment IP Venture Studio that creates, curates, and scales high-impact intellectual properties across entertainment, sports, music festivals, digital formats, and branded experiences.

The company is in the process of setting up offices in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Dubai.
Raj Nayak, Founder of House of IP, said, “At a time when content is fragmented, attention spans are shrinking, and brands are seeking more immersive and ownable experiences, the need for strong, scalable IPs is more urgent than ever. This venture is about building cultural properties that connect deeply with audiences while delivering real value to brands and platforms.”
Atul Hegde, Founder of YAAP, said, “At YAAP, we’ve always believed in the power of IPs to build lasting brand equity. Partnering with Raj to launch House of IP is a natural extension of our vision. With his creative leadership and our digital-first DNA, we’re excited to co-create iconic, scalable properties that will redefine how brands engage with culture and communities.”
