We created Tastemade with one goal in mind: to connect the world through food. A generation ago the cable industry launched category defining brands in food and lifestyle and we believe the same opportunity exists for today’s global, social and mobile digital platforms. Tastemade was founded by Steven Kydd, Larry Fitzgibbon, and Joe Perez and is funded by Redpoint Ventures.
We’re empowering a new creative class to create amazing video programming for the modern media age, one that is instantly global, social and available anytime, anywhere. With over 100 food channels in the Americas, Europe, and Asia, our diverse programming reflects our commitment to build a scalable network of culinary tastemakers who share a passion for creating amazing programming for a global community of food lovers.
We’ve launched a slate of original programming on our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/tastemade. The Tastemade channel offers various themed shows such as video recipes, cooking shows and travel.
Many of our tastemakers will film in Los Angeles, California at our 7,000 sq. ft. production studio, a place where Tastemakers can connect, collaborate, and create world-class video programming. Designed to drive high-quality production and inspire collaboration, our studio also serves as a center for creative innovation to test new content formats.
