OLD SCHOOL MEETS NEW SCHOOL
Carl’s most recent executive accomplishment as Chief Revenue & Business Development Officer for Hookit, a San Diego based digital platform created to measure, analyze, and value Brand Sponsorship ROI for athletes, teams, leagues, federations, events and agencies, allowed him to dramatically expand growth into mainstream sport across North America and opening Europe, including a successful $16M Series C private equity backed growth investment. But it’s Thomas’s 25+ years of senior management experience that allowed him to come in at the top of this young, cutting-edge company and help disrupt the global media measurement industry.
A proven leader and international growth executive in the sports, media, and entertainment industries, Thomas has experience with companies ranging from early stage entrepreneurial ventures to multi-billion dollar public firms, all of which make him uniquely suited to adapt his “old school” sensibilities to new school entrepreneurial undertakings. In this keynote, Carl explains what he’s learned over decades of experience in business, and how true leadership requires adapting to new developments.
