Quick Custom Intelligence, LLC and Itibari Waynne & Partners are businesses that seem quite different at first glance. They focus on different parts of the entertainment world. Yet both companies see a shared opportunity. They want to make live entertainment inside casinos and resorts work better as a business for operators and creators alike. Their recent partnership shows how data tools, financing options and streaming technology can come together to treat a single live show as both a one night event and something that generates value long after the curtains close.
Quick Custom Intelligence started with a clear problem in mind. Casino resorts collect huge amounts of data every day. But staff often struggle to use that data for quick decisions on the gaming floor, in hotels or for marketing. The company built its QCI AGI Platform to fix that. Today the platform runs in more than 300 casino resorts across North America, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Latin America and The Bahamas. It helps manage more than $42 billion in annual gross gaming revenue. Hosts, marketers and operations teams all see the same real time information on player development, campaigns and game performance. That lets them coordinate better and respond faster to what guests want.
Itibari Waynne & Partners looks at entertainment through the lens of money and ownership. The firm acts as both a financing company and a studio. It designs deal structures that let creators expand their work while keeping control of their rights. Much of its financing, up to 80%, uses layers of protection like insurance backed credit and government incentives. At the center of this sits the Studio Network. That is a group of trusted partners for production, distribution and risk management. Projects can range from casino live events to content for wider release.
These two companies meet in tribal gaming resorts. Those properties already spend a lot on entertainment. They have big venues and tight schedules. But they need to engage guests everywhere on site, not just in the main theater. The partnership combines QCI’s data and operations systems with the Studio Network’s financing and distribution tools. Live shows become in person moments that also turn into digital assets. Resorts can record them, reuse them or stream them later. Creators keep ownership and share in future revenue.
VYRE Network (OTC MARKETS: VYRE) plays a key role as the streaming arm of the Studio Network. Launched in 2019, it offers ad supported video on demand and live streaming for filmmakers, TV creators and athletes. VYRE provides global reach, funding and production help to build audiences. In this deal, it streams shows across resorts via secure channels like mobile apps and player screens. Performances then extend to viewers far beyond one venue.Â
Leaders at these firms bring backgrounds that shaped this approach. Bruce Waynne founded Itibari Waynne & Partners. He is a Grammy winning producer with credits for 50 Cent, Frank Ocean, Justin Bieber and Fantasia. He also built financial tools for creators at The Made Series Music Library, Sound Royalties and Transparence Entertainment Group. Andrew Cardno cofounded Quick Custom Intelligence. Over two decades, he led teams on data visualization like deep zoom formats. His work spans telecom with Telstra, retail at Walmart and Best Buy, and health care at City of Hope and UCSD. He holds over 150 patent applications.Â
David Hill adds depth as President of VYRE Network. His experience covers content strategy, digital platforms and growth. He guides how VYRE links independent creators to partners like the Studio Network. All three leaders push models where creators act like small businesses. They get transparency on rights, royalties and revenue over time, not just a flat fee for one gig.
Tribal resorts gain something concrete from this. The partners created Live House. It pushes concerts onto gaming floors and into guest paths via digital screens and apps. A guest might catch a show near slots or on a kiosk, not just in seats. Performers own the recordings. QCI’s AI helps pick shows, time streams and tie them to offers. That boosts engagement across the property.
Resorts have poured billions into venues and tech to draw crowds. Yet showrooms limit value to ticketed seats on one night. Spreading content site wide and beyond makes each event last longer economically. Creators join that tail end through solid ownership deals. Everyone gains from repeated plays and licenses.
Casinos, creators and funders now build systems that link stages to screens as one flow. Data tracks guests. Finance backs shows. Streaming carries them far. This setup turns live art into lasting business assets. For anyone watching these sectors, that shift feels like the real story worth following.
