Company Description:

Founded in 2005, Chair Entertainment Group is committed to narrowing the gap between the artistic ideal and its commercial manifestation. Chair creates stories that draw upon universal themes to excite, inspire, and fuel the imaginations of generations to come.

Chair’s unique value proposition is that we (1) create compelling original stories, (2) own and maintain creative control of our IP, and (3) create marketing synergy around that IP in 5 core franchise areas: video games, books, movies, comics, and merchandise. Each product we develop offers a unique perspective of the story and works together to expand the franchise.

In 2006, Chair introduced its first IP with the release of the NY Times bestselling novel, Empire, written by acclaimed author Orson Scott Card. A feature film based on Empire is currently in development by Joel Silver/Warner Bros. and Chair has plans to create future video games and a comic book series, all offering a unique experience within its Empire universe.

Chair was acquired by Epic Games in May of 2008 and will continue as a subsidiary of Epic Games under the Chair name.
