Founded in 2012, CGR was established in Fort Greene, Brooklyn by Chris Gannett, former CMO of AMERICAN IDOL owner and producer CORE Media Group following the company's acquisition by Apollo Global Management.

​

Our approach combines entrepreneurial discipline with deep sector expertise to enable founders, innovation leaders and their teams to disrupt existing models and build new markets.

We are operator-first because we were operators first. Specific areas of interest include Content, Consumer Tech, SaaS, Subscription Commerce, and Data. 

Brand x Technology x Content x Data

​

We back operators who challenge convention, imagine the future, and bring it to life. 

 

We advise and invest alongside leading organizations, entrepreneurs, investors, and sports and entertainment talent across the private, public and social sectors, and arm our companies with expertise to define fields of opportunity, create powerful brand concepts, launch and grow products, and design operational structures to own the next horizon of innovation. 

​

As each engagement demands, we may align in partnership with our network of supportive Advisory Partners, each of whom shares a commitment to help management teams execute their strategic growth plans.
