Consello, the global advisory and investing platform, that includes Tom Brady as a partner, announced the appointment of Nick Mullen as head of its Sports Advisory Business. With over a decade of sports marketing and private equity expertise, Mullen will spearhead the expansion of Consello’s sports business ecosystem.
Prior to joining Consello, Mullen founded Dynamiq Ventures, a private investment vehicle supported by a global network of family offices. Dynamiq Ventures invests across multiple sectors, including fintech, e-commerce, data, cybersecurity, and sports. He is also a partner at Happy Stack Ventures, a venture capital firm focused on high-growth opportunities in tech and consumer sectors.
Earlier in his career, Consello served as the Group Deputy CEO of International Sports Management (ISM), where he spearheaded the growth of the agency’s U.S. operations.
“We are experiencing a fundamental reshaping of the sports industry,” said Declan Kelly, founder, chairman and CEO of Consello. “Nick’s experience in private equity and the business of sports, combined with his extensive network, will play a critical role in uncovering opportunities to shape the future of sports as an emerging asset class.”
“Consello brings an extraordinary network and set of capabilities from its corporate advisory work that position us to become a driving force in the rapidly evolving sports industry,” said Mullen. “Rather than compete for a share of the existing sports landscape, we are looking to create new and incremental value for all stakeholders.”
Consello’s six advisory platforms include Corporate Advisory, M&A, Growth, Marketing, Technology, and Sports, Entertainment and Leadership Development. Dedicated teams operate in each practice, led by a leadership group with operational experience across industries, business growth stages and market cycles and with an expansive set of global corporate relationships.
Consello’s investment business, Consello Capital, identifies high-potential mid-market companies and invests capital and expertise to transform growth.
