Fabian Geyrhalter (FINIEN)

I am the Principal of Los Angeles-based brand consultancy FINIEN and a partner at Chameleon Collective, a business consultancy that in 2022 made the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies for the second year in a row.

A Graphic Designer turned Creative Director turned Brand Strategist, I love to create clarity for brand transformations. I do so for startups and Fortune 500s alike, but the thrill is the same since I wholeheartedly believe that any venture can turn into an admired brand if developed in an intrinsic, holistic, and methodological manner.

I have deep expertise in guiding organizations through their brand transformations and have advised companies such as Marriott International, Warner Brothers, Match Group, Honeywell, Kaplan, and Randstad. My thoughts on branding have appeared in publications like Inc., Forbes, Entrepreneur, and The Washington Post, and my creative direction has won over 50 international awards.

All three of my books became international Amazon best-sellers and turned into go-to resources for entrepreneurs and marketers alike. From my Resonaid brand strategy workshops to the Hitting the Mark podcast, I am in a constant stimulation cycle. In 2022 I received the inaugural Global Startup Mentor Award for being the highest-rated mentor in the U.S. by Founder Institute, the world's largest pre-seed accelerator.

Originally from Vienna, Austria I have been living in Los Angeles for over half my life. I enjoy speaking and traveling the world to hold keynotes and group workshops, where I get to share my actionable brand advice.
