Big Think Leadership Team & Executives

Victoria Brown

CEO

Identifying opportunities, developing strategies, and executing initiatives to advance organizational mission and drive profitable results • Advising board members, business leaders, and entrepreneurs on deal sourcing, fundraising, and operational leadership • Cultivating strategic partnerships with high-profile global companies, thought leaders, and stakeholders I thrive on building businesses, shaping cultures, creating content and leading operations. An innovator and strategist, I transformed a startup into a globally-recognized knowledge company in B2B and B2C markets. By connecting stakeholders, I set the stage for strategic partnerships and long-term relationships. I also focus on developing organizational agility by building high-performance teams and promoting cross-functional collaboration. During my 13 years as Board Chairman and CEO of Big Think, I co-led development and operations, from idea to exit. I sourced investors, talent, clients, and prospective buyers, managing relationships and brokering deals. A savvy rainmaker and negotiator, I secured 3 rounds of funding to launch the business, attracted a buyer, and negotiated deal terms for a successful exit. In addition to spearheading growth and exit initiatives, I oversaw product development, booked and interviewed 1,000+ thought leaders to join our network contributors, established high-visibility brand relationships, and expanded distribution. A trusted advisor and business leader, I am seeking new opportunities to collaborate in fueling organizational growth, stakeholder engagement, profitability, and ROI. Additionally, I oversaw product development.
