Goliath 'link' — East West
Goliath is not meant to replace a dedicated symphonic library like East West’s own "Hollywood Orchestra," but its orchestral content is far from an afterthought.

This makes them ideal for padding, background textures, and pop arrangements where the orchestra is a supporting element rather than the lead.
Today, "Goliath" is an apt descriptor. With over $70 billion in assets (and projections to hit $100+ billion by 2026), market capitalization hovering near $300 billion in implied valuation metrics, and a footprint that spans the world’s two largest economies, East West has outgrown its regional shell.
