}}Oliver (Olly) Bengough is a British entrepreneur and media mogul.[1] He is best known for his transformation of the KOKO music venue in London, and as the founder of the broadcasting channel Cinémoi.[2]

Career

Bengough opened his first bar “Lunasa” in 2000 at the age of 23, transforming a rundown pub into one of the most respected bars along King's Road.[3] A year later, in 2001, Bengough founded the Mint Group, under which he would go on to launch 5 other venues across London.[4]

In 2003, Bengough collaborated with Groove Armada to expand the Lovebox Music Festival from a small monthly club night, to a festival handling over 50,000 people per weekend.[5]

KOKO

In 2004 Bengough was introduced to a former theatre named Camden Palace that was at the time run down.[6] Bengough saw the potential of the theatre and embarked on a multimillion-pound restoration process lasting more than six months. The restoration process included all new technical facilities, enabling the scope of operations to be broadened to include live concert performances, club nights, corporate events and television production.[7] Reopened under the new name of KOKO, the club hosted a number of high-profile events since and is one of the most well known venues in London.[8]

Cinémoi

In 2009 Bengough founded Cinémoi, a global television network focusing on film, fashion and international style. Cinémoi launched in North American version on DirecTV in 2012; broadcasting to over 20 million households.[9]
