Bogotá, August 6, 2025 — KOPA, an agency specializing in brand and entertainment licensing, is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with Futureshirts (https://futureshirts.co/), a U.S.-based company recognized for developing official merchandise and brand experiences for iconic rock and pop artists. Under this new agreement, KOPA will support the commercial expansion of Futureshirts’ artist portfolio across Latin America.
KOPA will focus on identifying and developing licensing opportunities in Mexico, Colombia, and Ecuador, with a particular emphasis on the apparel category—a key sector where fashion brands are increasingly looking to collaborate with musical artists.
Futureshirts’ portfolio includes legendary names such as Journey, Foreigner, Skid Row, Steppenwolf, and Village People, among others—artists whose cultural impact continues to resonate with fans and consumers alike, fueling growing demand for music-inspired products.
For Carlos Carvajal, founder and director of KOPA, this agreement is both a professional and personal milestone, offering the opportunity to work with bands that have left a lasting mark on music history —including Journey, one of his longtime favorites.
The relationship between KOPA and Futureshirts began with a meeting at the Licensing Expo in Las Vegas in May 2025, following direct outreach from Steve Cooper and Lauren Scheffe. KOPA expresses its sincere appreciation for the trust placed in the agency to lead licensing efforts in the region.
This agreement reflects the strength and reliability of KOPA’s work in Latin America and further solidifies its role as a trusted partner for connecting brands and audiences through creative and culturally resonant licensing programs.
