The People Behind The Brand
We Build. We Connect. We Grow.
MGEM Global is a management, entertainment, media, events, and growth company helping talent, creators, entrepreneurs, brands, and businesses turn ideas into scalable brands and opportunities.
Our Story
Your Vision. Our Network.
MGEM (Management Group, Entertainment & Media) was founded by Jake "Malky" Malkovich with one clear purpose: be the team working behind the brand. Not just a manager. Not just a consultant. The full infrastructure behind growth.
After years across entertainment, nightlife, events, and business — Jake saw the same gap everywhere. Artists needed more than bookings. Entrepreneurs needed more than advice. Brands needed more than marketing. Everyone needed a partner who understood the full picture and could put the right pieces in place.
MGEM was built to be that partner. A company that combines management, strategy, brand development, partnerships, events, media, and connections into one operation — so clients can focus on their vision while we build everything behind it.
The Founder
Jake "Malky" Malkovich is an entrepreneur, entertainment executive, and business strategist with deep roots in the nightlife, music, and events industries. His career spans artist management, DJ representation, event production, hospitality consulting, and brand development.
Jake founded MGEM to build something that didn't exist — a true full-service company that could manage talent, produce events, consult businesses, and build brands all under one name. His hands-on approach, extensive industry network, and relentless drive to create opportunities define everything MGEM stands for.
Based in Michigan and operating nationally, Jake and the MGEM team work with artists, DJs, creators, venues, and businesses across the country to help them grow, scale, and succeed.
