Leadership & Advisory Board

The people building the path.

Rep2Owner is led by operators who have made the rep-to-owner transition themselves and guided by an advisory board with the operating, capital, and category experience to scale it globally.

The Executive Team

Ian Kofford

The Advisory Board

Operators, founders, and capital experts who advise Rep2Owner and mentor the founders coming through the path - a bench that grows every quarter. Advisors serve in a non-fiduciary, advisory capacity and are not directors or officers of Rep2Owner, LLC.
