HarbourView Equity Partners (HarbourView), the multi-strategy investment firm focused on opportunities across music, sports, media, and entertainment, will return to the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity with an expanded multi-day programming slate from June 23-25. Anchored by the theme “Stewardship: In Motion,” programming will be centered on the evolving relationship between culture, capital, and storytelling, and feature major talent including Chaka Khan, Babyface, Steven Bartlett, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Finn Askew, Sasha Keable, Elmiene, Floetry, Rob Markman, Afrikali Jean Presents Wyclef Jean’s Carnival, SoundCloud CEO Eliah Seton, Luminate CEO Rob Jonas, and acclaimed chef Kwame Onwuachi.

HarbourView returns to Cannes Lions with an expanded platform that brings its portfolio of creative assets directly into the heart of the Festival of Creativity and features live performances by several of the firm’s catalogue artists. Through curated conversations, performances, and networking experiences, HarbourView will create opportunities for brands, marketers, creators, and industry leaders to engage with the talent, intellectual property, and cultural communities represented across its investments. Building on a successful 2025 debut, the firm’s 2026 presence showcases a few of the creators, intellectual property, and cultural assets within HarbourView’s portfolio, while creating new opportunities for collaboration across the global marketing, media, entertainment, and sports ecosystem.

“Creativity is one of the most powerful forces shaping culture and business today. As the worlds of entertainment, technology, media, and finance become increasingly interconnected, Cannes Lions provides an important forum for the leaders driving that evolution,” said Sherrese Clarke, Founder, CEO & Chief Investment Officer, HarbourView Equity Partners. “What makes this year’s programming especially meaningful is the opportunity to bring together those cultural leaders who help define both the HarbourView portfolio and the future of culture. It reflects our belief that stewardship goes beyond ownership – it’s about creating platforms where creativity and long-term value can flourish.”

“Cannes Lions is a celebration of creativity at its highest level, making it a powerful platform to spotlight the creators, catalogs, and intellectual property across HarbourView’s portfolio,” said Lucinda Martinez, Chief Marketing Officer, HarbourView Equity Partners. “Through our programming and conversations, we are showcasing the impact of creative works that continue to resonate with audiences, shape culture, and demonstrate the significance of intellectual property in today’s global entertainment ecosystem.”

The three-day event is being produced by Team Epiphany, with Captivate leading creative production for the live performances.
