SAGAX by LVDO

SAGAX (latin) — keen of scent, sharp of mind.

The world of
high stakes
works by introduction.

In motorsport, film, live events and finance, doors don't open through applications — they open through trust. SAGAX is the bridge between the worlds that don't naturally speak to each other, from Monaco to Tokyo.

/ 01 — About us

A bridge
between worlds.

Many people have contacts. Very few have earned long-term trust across the ecosystems where trust itself is the rarest currency.

SAGAX is a boutique advisory house operating at the intersection of motorsport, audiovisual production, live events and finance — worlds that share one common rule: you don't enter them, you're introduced to them.

Our foundation was built over twelve years within one of the most closed ecosystems in the world: motorsport, from karting to Formula 1 — including driver scouting for a racing academy, work across Le Mans, the NASCAR Euro Series, Formula E, the Monaco Historic Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Fuji.

Motorsport is the proof, not the offer. What we do — navigating complex, high-trust environments where relationships, judgement and execution determine success — applies equally to film, music, live events and cross-border investment.

We move fast, work discreetly, and only commit when we know we can deliver. That's the standard.

/ 02 — Who we serve

Two rooms.
One bridge.

— The decision-makers

Investors, family offices, brands and financiers

You have capital, ambition, and a clear thesis. What you don't have is the phone number — the one that opens the door, the one that gets you the right meeting before your competitor takes the seat.

We provide direct access, situational intelligence, and the kind of introductions that money alone cannot buy.

— The operators

Producers, teams, agencies and artists

You have the project, the vision and the budget. What you need is hands on the ground — someone who can secure the permit, source the crew, close the venue, and hold the line when things move fast.

We provide execution support, local networks and the kind of discretion that premium projects require.

  • Discreet representation
/ 04 — Method

How we work.

01

Listen first

Every brief looks the same on paper. The real objective — the one that actually pays out — is usually three questions deeper. We find it before we move.

02

Move quietly

Most of what we do shouldn't be on a slide. Discretion is part of the deliverable. Our clients trust us with what they wouldn't put in writing.

03

Deliver, then step back

No retainer theatre. We're there when needed, gone when not. Results, not face-time.

/ 05 — Territories

Missions
delivered across
three continents.

Every market has its own grammar. We've worked in these — long enough to know who to call, when, and how to ask.

Let's talk
/ 06 — Case studies

Four missions,
four outcomes.

Case 01 · Motorsport
Karting
to F1.

From small talk to a signed pre-contract with an F1 academy — in under six months.

A young karting driver was already managed by a former F1 driver — well-connected on paper, big promises, no traction.

We took over the strategic angle. Mapped the right academy, opened the right door, and led the conversation through to a visit to the team's factory with the team principal and sporting director.

Six months in: pre-contract signed to join the academy — without any pay-to-drive obligation.

— Outcome
Pre-contract
signed in < 6 months.
Pay-to-drive: avoided.
Case 02 · Events
Expo 2020
Dubai.

A sim racing experience that brought Monaco to global delegations.

The brief: design and run a sim racing stand to introduce Monaco to foreign delegations visiting the Pavilion.

We sourced all hardware locally, designed the in-game liveries and the print collateral, and ran the experience on the floor — including personally coaching the No. 3 of a G8 government.

— Outcome
High-level
diplomatic
engagement
delivered
on-brand.
Case 03 · Music
First single,
right room.

Putting an emerging artist in the studio with the right people — first time out.

An artist needed to record a debut single and didn't know where to start.

We sourced both the studio and a sound engineer with multiple gold and platinum records to his name — pairing first-take ambition with the kind of ear that doesn't waste sessions.

— Outcome
Debut single
recorded with
award-winning
engineering.
Case 04 · Production
Short film
in Monaco.

Filming inside the Monaco GP pit lane — with a real F1 car on set.

A short film required something most productions never get: full clearance to shoot inside the Monaco Grand Prix pit lane, with all the institutional weight that implies.

We led the end-to-end fixing — securing the authorisations, coordinating with local media, organising the extras casting, and sourcing every piece of equipment and props required.

Including a genuine Formula 1 car on the set.

— Outcome
Pit lane access
granted.
Real F1 car
on set.

Ludo Founder · SAGAX by LVDO Portrait · Vivien Killilea

Twelve years moving between worlds that don't naturally speak to each other — and learning that the connection between them is not a network, but a reputation built one conversation at a time.

From the Monaco pit lane to Sony & Polyphony Digital, from Expo 2020 Dubai under H.S.H. Prince Albert II's patronage to advocacy work with the Meningitis Research Foundation and CoMO — a career built on trust, discretion, and the discipline of only committing to what one can truly deliver.
