Hi, Mat and all,

"Operator" sounds well.

Another option is to use more than a single word, in order to capture the
"starting" and the "operating" moments.

Some possibilities:

- "Started and operated by"

- "Promoter / Operator"

- "Started and run by"

- "Promoted and managed by"

- "Promoter / Manager"

- "Operator / Sponsor"



What do you think? Probably no one of them is perfect, but let's just choose
one. 

Jose
