CBIA BizCast presenter Ali Warshavsky speaks with Rob Lia, President of Wheelhouse group and Stamford.
Brent Montgomery, known for creating a reality TV empire, is the founder of Wheelhouse. He promoted his legal advisor, Lia, to president in 2019.
Wheelhouse Group also has offices in New York and Los Angeles. Lia said the tax credits offered by the state to media companies were the incentive they needed to bring the business to Stamford instead of Queens, New York.
“Fairfield County is full of incredible talent and most of it goes to New York City every day,” Lia said.
Lia oversees The Village, which is the building that includes the Wheelhouse production offices in Stamford, Cisco Brewery and The Wheel restaurant. He said the goal was to create a collaborative space where creative minds can come together.
