Gary Vaynerchuk is a serial entrepreneur and serves as the Chairman of VaynerX, the CEO of VaynerMedia, and the Creator & CEO of VeeFriends. Gary is considered one of the leading global minds on what's next in culture, business, and the internet.

Known as "GaryVee," he is described as one of the most forward thinkers in business. He acutely recognizes trends and patterns early to help others understand how shifts in consumer attention impact the realities of the business world today. Gary's approach sits at the intersection of business and pop culture. He keenly understands how to bring brand relevance to the forefront. He is a prolific angel investor with early investments in companies like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Venmo, Snapchat, Coinbase, and Uber.

This year, Gary unveiled his seventh book, "Day Trading Attention" where he provides fresh insights into navigating the modern social media landscape. Gary's expertise guides readers on harnessing underpriced attention channels in the digital age. He emphasizes mastering storytelling in these arenas and highlights the "TikTokification of Social Media," where content relevance surpasses follower counts. Businesses can leverage this shift to enhance their brand and boost sales. "Day Trading Attention" equips readers with essential skills to succeed in today's dynamic digital world. Gary also announced his first children's picture book, based on his VeeFriends characters, titled "Meet Me in the Middle” (set to be published on July 16, 2024). The picture book, which will prominently feature two VeeFriends characters, Eager Eagle and Patient Pig, delves into the emotional elements essential for nurturing children's empathy – a crucial skill for their future success.

Gary is an entrepreneur at heart – he builds businesses. Today, he helps Fortune 1000 brands leverage consumer attention through his full-service advertising agency, VaynerMedia, which has offices in New York, Los Angeles, Toronto, Mexico City, London, Amsterdam, Sydney, Singapore, Tokyo, Bangkok, and Kuala Lumpur. VaynerMedia is part of the VaynerX holding company, which also includes Eva Nosidam Productions, Gallery Media Group, The Sasha Group, VaynerSpeakers, VaynerCommerce, and Tingley Lane Trading. Gary is the Co-Founder of VaynerSports, VCR Group, VaynerWatt, ArtOfficial, Resy, and Empathy Wines. He guided Resy and Empathy to successful exits -- which he later sold to American Express and Constellation Brands, respectively. He also owns a Major League Pickleball team called the 5s, is part owner of a Big3 basketball team, and is an investor in the revival of the SlamBall League.

Gary is also the founder and creator of VeeCon – a contemporary super conference that converges business and pop culture with innovation and technology. In addition to running multiple businesses, Gary documents his daily life as a CEO through his social media channels, which have more than 44 million followers and garner over 300 million monthly impressions/views across all platforms. His podcast, "The GaryVee Audio Experience," ranks among the top podcasts globally.

Gary serves on the board of MikMak, Bojangles Restaurants, Global Citizen Forum, and Pencils of Promise. He is also a longtime Well Member of charity: water.

Gary's life ambition is to buy the New York Jets.

A little throwback when I went on Piers Morgan's show after my prediction came true and Facebook bought Instagram 😉

[ronyeah]

remembe Gary Vee predicted nft to be the next big thing

[jameshogan]

Billionaires telling me im wasting time playing video games and he spends more time in 2 days than i do in a month just being petty. Finally now i know how to get ahead

[tryunetech]

The beauty of time. Only time will determine who gets to say I told you so. Love the level of conviction and determination you have. I mean friending everyone? because you knew you would get back to them. That's some Count of Montecristo level shit Gary. Love you brother.

[sonylistonsghost]

This guy is such a genius, he wasted all that precious time of his life he can never get back just to argue with internet trolls

[searching_soul]

This is so funny and sad at the same time.
Loved it 🥰

[iguacu]

Is this supposed to be a story that makes you look good?

[Siltti]

Prime example: Tell me how you're not able to concentrate on what matters and let go without telling me you're not able to concentrate on what matters and let go.

[robbogart]

Saw this clip like 5 years ago. That was when Gary was peak cool

[ImpatientTurtle]

Literally. Like literally. Literally bro. This guy bought those ape images, went hard into nfts. So you know, has a few misses as well.

[Jad.Khoury]

I don’t get it can somebody explain how “they stole it” makes sense if they bought another company??

[stonedan]

He spent 38 hours texting "what now b****" to people. Feels like the people who called you an idiot were accurate.

[bobbobek]

Wow this guy is still alive what a blast from the past, where are your non-fungible tokens😅😅😅

[kevinmalone]

Legend! Gary helped change my life. Humanity is lucky to have an advocate for emotional intelligence

[YouTubeOdyssey]

I'm not much for using email, but if you send everyone the same message, I'm pretty sure you can check a box and send it to everyone with one click. Also, selling your company to facebook for one billion, then weeks later facebook pays 14 billion for basically the same thing you just gave them for one is not a flex. It screams desperation.

[wethepeople]

Gary just listening to you is making me richer everyday, not just money, family, happinnnes.

[BiggerDreamer]

than everyone clapped, asked for your autograph and gave you kisses...
the president called and said thank you sir than made you president

[javieravalos]

This is a must see this university talk, relatively og vid ✌️

[macheelstv]

I never said that to you! Keep on rockin’ in the free world!

[Time.for.tea.]

How did they steal it? I don’t follow this stuff but now I’m really curious about it!!
