About Linus Media Group

Broadcast Media Production and Distribution
51-200

Starting out with unboxings at NCIX, a Canadian electronic retailer, Linus went on his own and expanded to event coverage, commercial production, and tech projects.

Founded in January 2013, Linus Media Group operated primarily out of a garage with Linus Sebastian, Luke Lafreniere, Edzel Yago, and Brandon Lee - in true "startup" fashion fighting for their survival.

Shortly afterward, the team was expanded, the garage "office" was relocated to a repurposed residential house "office" and business continued as usual.
