STAR PARTNERS

OVERVIEW

Star Partners brings music, film, and technology to the world stage.

Allen Schwalb and Jamie Cook have spent their lives bringing entertainment to life. It is a remarkable and impactful journey—one that Star Partners has been privileged to be part of and one that continues today through Mr. Cook's current and future endeavors.

Guided by the principle taught to Jamie Cook by mentor Allen Schwalb — "The best way to predict the future is to create it." — this philosophy has defined Mr. Cook's work for more than four decades.

From pioneering early internet television and satellite tracking technology in the late 1990s, to advancing artificial intelligence beginning in 2020, Mr. Cook has consistently operated at the forefront of emerging industries. His work spans music, film, technology, waste-to-energy, and humanitarian initiatives, with a focus on creating and bringing projects to the world.

Allen Schwalb raised over $500 million between 1973 and his passing in 2014, establishing a standard of disciplined execution and visionary leadership. Building on that foundation, Mr. Cook has raised over $1 billion since the 1990s, while continuing to originate, develop, and launch projects globally.

In 2020, Mr. Cook founded the International Music Awards, now operating in 12 countries worldwide. Beginning in 2026, the organization will expand with the goal of establishing an International Music Awards Hall of Fame and Museum, with locations planned across all 12 participating countries.

Star Partners continues to originate, build, and launch new music, film, and technology projects onto the world stage.

"Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead for that is where the future is."
Mr. Jamie (JC) Cook
