Video games and esports

The gaming industry is a global entertainment juggernaut. 

As part of a global network, RSM has partnered with players from indie devs to triple-A studios, so we know the ins and outs of the industry. Our deep experience gives us the skills to support publishers, studios, and the entire gaming ecosystem.

Entertainment, media and film

Lights, Camera, Tax Breaks!

Australia is a hotspot for film and media production, thanks to competitive government grants and tax incentives. We help producers secure funding through programs like the Producer Offset, optimise production budgets, and manage intellectual property rights to maximise profitability.

Music

Stream, Earn, Repeat

Streaming, digital sales, and virtual concerts have transformed revenue streams for the music industry. As technology rapidly evolves, industry players must adapt. RSM supports artists and labels with royalty management and tax optimisation, plus we provide data, digital, and IT solutions.

Wagering

Betting on Success

Australia has a long-established wagering industry, with sports betting and casino-style gaming deeply embedded in the national entertainment landscape. However, operators are now navigating an increasingly complex regulatory environment, particularly around advertising and compliance. Our team at RSM understands these challenges and is well-placed to support businesses in managing risk, meeting regulatory obligations, and adapting to ongoing change.

Publishing

Turning digital pages.

Australia’s publishing industry is adapting to the rising demand for e-books, audiobooks, and self-published works. Our services are tailored to Australia’s unique regulatory environment, ensuring local businesses remain competitive and compliant while unlocking opportunities in global markets.
