Ken is thrilled to be working with Underknown. In his own words: “Underknown is already ahead of the curve thanks in large part to the visionary and fearless CEO and co-founder Steve Hulford, who leads a talented team committed to producing and distributing unique quality content internationally, using an equally unique business model. Underknown is a highly successful upstart in an increasingly challenging and competitive media world.”
As International Advisor to Underknown, the company benefits from Ken’s proven experience on everything from strategic co-production and international financing partnerships, to development of innovative content and branding strategies.
