National, 3rd September, 2025: ITW Universe, one of Asia’s leading sports, entertainment, and media consulting group, today announced the official launch of its specialist legal and compliance advisory division – ITW Arc. Created in response to today’s fast-changing and increasingly complex regulatory landscape, ITW Arc is dedicated to safeguarding clients’ interests and empowering brands to make informed, compliant-based decisions within the dynamic realms of sports, media, and the entertainment industry.
Building on ITW Universe’s position as a truly full-stack consultancy, this new vertical delivers comprehensive, up-to-date advisory support through a team of seasoned legal experts, compliance professionals, and regulatory specialists. ITW Arc’s mission is clear: to act as a trusted partner for clients, helping them navigate legal intricacies, safeguard their operations, and stay ahead of regulatory risks across India and global markets.
Unlike conventional consultancies, ITW Arc bridges the gap between strategy and compliance, offering not only brand-building and marketing expertise but also hands-on guidance on complex compliance issues impacting deals, campaigns, partnerships, and commercial rights. This unique holistic approach ensures brands and rights holders can operate, grow, and innovate with greater confidence.
Joylashmi Das, General Counsel, ITW, who heads the division, said: “At ITW Arc, we go beyond drafting agreements or ticking compliance boxes. We are partners in progress for our clients and brands, enabling business growth by helping them put the right guardrails in place. We anticipate challenges, close loopholes, and ensure that we keep our clients updated with the latest developments.”
Bhairav Shanth, Co-founder, ITW, said: “Our vision at ITW Universe has always been to be a seamless single window service provider for our clients, catering to their every need. While some brands may have specialist teams that provide them direct access to advisory on compliance and legal matters, many do not have that luxury, and the mission of ITW Arc is to provide them that guidance and counsel, making us true partners in their progress.”
With the launch of ITW Arc, ITW Universe further cements its role as a future-ready leader, offering end-to-end support to help brands thrive, innovate, and stay protected in an ever-evolving industry landscape.
