Wondery Founder Hernan Lopez Launches Owl & Co. Consulting Firm Focusing on Media and Technology
Hernan Lopez, the founder of podcasting giant Wondery and former 21st Century Fox executive, has launched Owl & Co., a media and tech consulting firm.
Hernan Lopez, the former 21st Century Fox executive who launched podcasting giant Wondery in 2016, has set up consulting firm Owl & Co. aimed at delivering data and analysis designed to help media and entertainment businesses manage the transition to the streaming era. Lopez has put early emphasis on a deep-dive study of the streaming content marketplace, using available viewership and spending data to crunch the ROI numbers based on the cost of TV series and movies. Owl & Co. marks the beginning of Lopez’s next chapter after nearly three years of legal battles with the federal prosecutors in New York who indicted him in 2020 on bribery and conspiracy charges in connection with TV rights deals for soccer leagues and tournaments in Latin America and other markets during his tenure as president of the Fox International Channels division.
