Brian Brady · Roanoke, VA
Experience earned on both sides of the table.
Brian founded Entrepreneur Investment Corp. in 2006 after building seven Verizon Wireless retail stores into an enterprise with more than $13 million in annual revenue. The company’s multimillion-dollar sale became the first of multiple successful exits and the foundation for Bradys Capital.
Since then, he has built and backed businesses across hospitality, craft spirits, home services, wireless retail, and entertainment. He has also assisted business owners through mergers, acquisitions, and complex transitions—experience that informs every partnership Bradys Capital considers.
Brian’s approach is direct and practical: understand the operation, align with the owner, protect what works, and bring the capital and operating support required for the next chapter.
Family, open water, and the pursuit of a good challenge.
Away from the office, Brian is an experienced sailor and avid offshore fisherman. He has competed successfully in offshore fishing tournaments, earning tournament wins while developing the patience, preparation, and calm decision-making that life on the water demands.
Family remains at the center of his life. Some of his best days are spent sharing the water with his son, passing along the same respect for hard work, adventure, and self-reliance that has shaped his own journey.
Whether he is at the helm, working a tournament spread, signing a whiskey barrel, or sitting across the table from a business owner, Brian brings the same approach: show up prepared, stay curious, and commit fully to the people beside you.
