--As Tiger's intellectual property
(IP)-related deal flow continues to grow, Zolot will leverage
decades of experience in complex M&A transactions,
business-development and consumer-brand strategy to provide
creative brand monetization solutions to clients
NEW
YORK, May 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- David Zolot, a high-impact investment
professional who brings nearly 25 years of experience in corporate,
IP and consumer-brand strategy, has joined Tiger Capital Group as
Managing Director, Brand
Strategies.
A veteran of the consumer branded space, Zolot has served in
senior executive roles at brand management firms Iconix Brands,
Saban Brands, and most recently as a
Principal at New York-based Neuberger Berman, where he focused on
their Marquee Brands investment strategy. In this latter role,
Zolot led a deal team that completed and integrated 10 new brand
acquisitions and strategic investments, scaling Marquee from an
early-stage startup to a global brand management firm generating
retail equivalent sales in excess of $3
billion annually.
At Tiger, Zolot heads a new business initiative focused on
creative, value-enhancing opportunities to the growing roster of
consumer-facing brands served by the company's finance, valuation
and advisory services divisions. His role also includes business
development across all divisions.
"Tiger's IP deal flow continues to expand and evolve, and we are
investing in and working with more consumer-facing brands that
boast strong growth and M&A potential," noted Tiger Capital
Group Chief Operating Officer Michael
McGrail. "David's impressive professional network and
mastery of brand and IP valuation, management and monetization, as
well as M&A execution, will benefit every facet of our
business. We're thrilled to welcome David to the Tiger team."
A University of Michigan Bachelor of
Business Administration graduate, Zolot started his career at
New York-based Peter J. Solomon
Company, where he executed M&A, financing and restructuring
transactions for the former Lehman Brothers chairman's eponymous,
boutique investment banking firm.
The New York native has closed over a hundred debt,
equity and capital markets transactions approaching $5 billion in aggregate consideration over the
course of his career, including highly complex deals involving
bankruptcies, corporate carveouts, cross-border negotiations and
transitions from public to private ownership.
As Zolot sees it, there is a meaningful opportunity for Tiger to
invest in or otherwise monetize brands that come in through, or are
able to utilize, Tiger's existing platform. "I'm excited to
leverage my network and experience to drive revenue across Tiger's
organization, with a focus on executing creative, value-enhancing
deals for consumer brands. I look forward to working closely with
the talented team at Tiger Capital Group to lead this new
initiative and to help expand the services and solutions offered to
our clients."
