New York, US, October 26, 2023: Global brand consultancy, Interbrand is scaling its Economics capability, which helps brands seize marketplace opportunities by determining the risks, rewards and likely business impact of new ideas, by promoting ex-CEO, entrepreneur and thought-leader Greg Silverman to Global Director, Brand Economics. 

Greg, who has worked with Interbrand throughout his distinguished career, is one of the architects of Interbrand’s Brand Valuation Model. As an entrepreneur, he developed and sold a software company that creates a “digital twin” of a market. He has led projects on mergers and acquisitions, brand strategy, product launch, brand architecture, customer experiences, brand valuations, and go-to-market strategy engagements for leading global companies. Greg is the host of a podcast called Road to Revenue and the author of “How Customers Behave”. He is working on a new book called How Brands Fail. Greg combines primary research, financial analysis, industry data, advertising plans, and business case modeling to give clients truths that allow them to have confidence to make iconic moves.
