Founders
David Beck

BRAVE HISTORY
BRAVE was founded in 2014 by David Beck and Jesse Redniss, backed by serial entrepreneur and investor Gary Vaynerchuk and RSE Ventures (Stephen Ross and Matt Higgins’ investment firm). BRAVE’s rapid success in delivering value for clients led to an unsolicited acquisition offer after only two years of operating. Turner (now WarnerMedia) acquired BRAVE’s advisory business bringing the nearly 20-person team in-house to lead strategy, investments, and innovation for Turner. No longer tied to their original deal with Turner, Beck and Redniss continue to manage the portfolio, make investments, and selectively advise C Suite leaders.
