Following its acquisition by OneTeam Partners in 2021, he spearheaded Webby-nominated campaigns for elite North American player associations and Fortune 500 brands including TIAA, Electronic Arts, DoorDash, and Pepsi.

Our work spans continents and industries, shaping FIFA World Cup 2026’s identity, orchestrating collaborations between FaZe Clan and Manchester City, launching a global brand for Call of Duty League, and redefining team operations with NASCAR team Sam Hunt Racing through innovative partnerships and marketing strategies.

As an investor at Italian Serie B football club Cesena FC and pioneer in emerging industries, Nathen combines deep cultural understanding with strategic business acumen to elevate brands, unite communities, and create lasting impact in the evolving landscape of global sport and entertainment.
