Branded is a capital markets, strategic advisory and media platform built for the hospitality industry. One team, three business lines, and one asset that powers all of them: access to the operators, decision makers, investors and audiences that move hospitality forward.
Every engagement draws on the same operators, relationships and audience. Clients come in through one door and get the whole house.
Capital markets advisory for hospitality companies: capital raising, corporate advisory, mergers and acquisitions, and strategic exits. Not a venture fund. A banker who has run the restaurant.
Explore Capital →Strategic advisory and go-to-market for hospitality technology, consumer brands and service providers. We open the doors, make the introductions and move pilots to contracts.
Explore Solutions →Podcasting, vodcasting, the Branded Media Network, the Hospitality Headline newsletter, original shows, and live activations at the industry’s biggest stages.
Explore Media →Branded was founded by hospitality owners, operators and investors. We still own and operate today, so we understand the business from the inside and the people on both sides of the table already take our calls.
That access is the asset. Access to operators. Access to decision makers. Access to capital. Access to the audience that matters. We put it to work for the companies we advise, raise capital for and put on air, across restaurants, hotels, foodservice, hospitality technology and the consumer brands that sell into them.
Three business lines, one ecosystem. Each line feeds the others, and every turn of the wheel creates more access for our partners.
Capital surfaces the companies and investors shaping the industry. Solutions connects them to the operators, franchise groups and enterprise accounts that buy. Media tells their story to the people who run, build and fund hospitality. A conversation becomes an introduction, an introduction becomes a relationship, and a relationship becomes a customer, a partnership or a deal.
