Who He Is
Jake Malkovich is the founder of MGEM Global — the ecosystem behind the opportunity. MGEM operates across talent management, entertainment, media, events, partnerships, business development, and future ventures. He built MGEM from the ground up in Detroit, and has grown its reach into a worldwide network spanning artists, brands, venues, entrepreneurs, and businesses across the USA and beyond.
Jake's approach is simple: show up, do the work, build real relationships, and create real value. That's how MGEM was built. That's how it keeps growing.

The Approach.
Long-Game Thinking
Every decision is made with the long term in mind. No shortcuts. No quick flips. Build something real, build it right, and let it compound over time.
Execution Over Talk
Ideas are cheap. Execution is everything. Jake doesn't just advise — he gets in the room, makes the calls, and sees things through to the end.
Relationships First
Every deal, every opportunity, every breakthrough in this industry comes through relationships. Jake has spent years building real ones — not just contacts.
Detroit Standard
Detroit built things that lasted. That work ethic, that grit, and that standard of excellence is in everything MGEM does — from Michigan to worldwide.

Network
Jake's network spans the USA and reaches internationally — artists, promoters, venues, brands, executives, and entrepreneurs who are part of the MGEM ecosystem in some capacity. It didn't happen overnight. It was built through years of showing up, doing the work, and creating real value for the people in the network.
Detroit is home base. But the reach is everywhere. MGEM has worked with talent, brands, and businesses across Michigan, the Midwest, the coasts, and internationally. The network keeps growing because the work speaks for itself.
