History
Atmosphere was initially incubated under Chive Media Group, an entertainment-focused company founded in 2008 by brothers John Resig and Leo Resig. The media company is best known for its flagship entertainment website, theCHIVE.com, and its affiliated charity, Chive Charities.
Atmosphere spun off from Chive Media Group in 2019 under the legal name of Rarified Atmosphere, Inc., with an initial launch of five channels, aimed primarily at bar and restaurant audiences.
Atmosphere now includes more than 60 channels — including both self-produced and partner-produced media. It serves customers across more than ≈ 50,000 venues.
Funding
As of the end of 2021, Atmosphere has raised a total of $143 million since its spin off from Chive Media Group in 2019. Atmosphere received $18 million in Series A funding in 2019 / 2020, $25 million of Series B funding in April 2021 at a post-money valuation of $275 million. In December 2021, Atmosphere raised $100 million: $80 million in Series C funding and $20 million of debt.
Partnerships
Among the most notable former partners of Atmosphere's is the video-focused social networking service, TikTok. Announced in January 2022, the partnership involved Atmosphere's editors curating videos and video compilations for the channel after receiving approval from each video's creator, then appending optional audio.
Other partnerships have included Red Bull TV, FITE, X Games, America's Funniest Home Videos, the estate of Bob Ross, and Geeks Who Drink.
