Brian Wieser, CFA, CEO and Principal
I am, at heart, an analyst. But not an "industry analyst" nor purely a "financial analyst." I'm more strategically oriented than most people who have worked on Wall Street and more conscious of capital markets issues and investor thinking than most who focus on strategy.
My background includes extensive experience in both industries. I was a banker at Lehman Brothers (covering the media and telecom industries), an Institutional Investor-award winning sell-side analyst at both Deutsche Bank (covering cable and satellite) and Pivotal Research (covering technology, media and services businesses). I also worked a senior executive at two of the world's four largest advertising agency groups, Interpublic and WPP. In addition, I was CMO for Simulmedia, a leading provider of advanced TV solutions.
