This proved to be a successful venture which later led the Scott brothers to incorporate the Dividian Production Group in 2004. Through DPG, Drew has produced several films which have toured the festival circuit. He has produced film and TV galas and events like the Leo Film & TV Awards in Hollywood North and the Producers Ball during the Toronto International Film Festival.

His latest project is co-hosting the hit HGTV show "Property Brothers" (2011) with his twin, Jonathan. The series focuses on helping families get into their dream homes without breaking their budget. "Property Brothers" (2011) is a perfect project for Drew since it blends two of his passions: real estate investment & TV production. Another passion for Drew is his philanthropic efforts. From working with the Children's Hospitals to coordinating initiatives to help underprivileged youth, he demonstrates the importance of giving back. He has collaborated with the network of artists involved in Paul Haggis Artists for Peace and Justice, a non-profit organization that supports communities in Haiti through programs in education and health.
