Mumbai, July 21, 2025 — Former Viacom18 COO and founder of House of Cheer, Raj Nayak, has announced the launch of his next ambitious venture, House of IPs, in strategic partnership with YAAP Digital, a leading digital content and influencer marketing company.

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.”

House of IP aims to be the creative engine for India’s evolving, experience-driven entertainment landscape, where bold ideas are transformed into timeless institutions.

The company is in the process of setting up offices, in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Dubai.

Welcome to the House of IP, where culture meets commerce, and ideas become iconic.
