Guy Oseary (@guyoseary) has been spotting talent
before anyone else could see it for nearly four decades. Under
his leadership at Maverick Records, Maverick sold more than 100
million albums. Guy has managed some of the biggest names in
music, including Madonna, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and U2, and
was named Variety's Music Mogul of the Year in 2022. He executive
produced Twilight, which became one of the most successful
franchises in movie history, generating more than
$3.5B.  Guy was also an early investor in Vita Coco and
co-founded A-Grade Investments and then Sound
Ventures, now with nearly $2 billion under management.
At A-Grade, his hits included Airbnb, Uber, and Spotify. Sound
Ventures launched with less than $100M and has since had 86 exits
and 26 IPOs.
