Gregory Roberts

Gregory Roberts is a serial tech startup founder. He dropped out of Carnegie-Mellon to start his first company, RamWorks, a digital marketing agency at age 17, going on to sell that company 10 years later, in all-cash deal to NYSE:MPS. He then moved to Silicon Valley and raised a $21 million Series A for one of the first web-based CRM companies, BrightStreet. His team built some of the first AI algorithms on nVidia’s CUDA architecture (PlayMotion, 2007). He designed and co-coded one of the first networked full-body-avatar multiplayer VR games for Oculus (2014). Across his two flagship companies, world-class clients have included Disney, Red Bull, Nike, NASA, Mercedes-Benz, Google and the NFL.


Roberts ran away and joined the circus after getting frustrated with the endless promise and heartbreak of the big tech cycle, and became an accomplished teacher of partner acrobatics.
