Join us for the Omaha Startup Collaborative's first Exchanges With entrepreneurship series featuring startup leaders Brian Spaly, founder and CEO of Trunk Club, and Devon Brooks, founder of Blo dry bar.
The Omaha Startup Collaborative Exchanges With ongoing series is supported by
SAC Federal Credit Union, the AIM Institute, Dundee Venture Capital, First National Bank, Straight Shot, Big Omaha and Cox Business.
Recognized as “one of America’s next top mentors” by The New York Times, Brooks founded Blo blow dry bar when she was 21 years old and in her second year of college. Now, with 45 locations worldwide, Brooks has shifted from day-to-day operations to grooming the next class of entrepreneurs. She has been a delegate for the G20 Young Entrepreneurs Summit.
Spaly is best known for founding Trunk Club, a men’s styling service primarily conducted via virtual consultations. Trunk Club was acquired by retail giant, Nordstrom for $350 million – just five years after Spaly founded it. Prior to Trunk Club, Spaly founded Bonobos, an e-commerce men’s apparel company that scaled to reach $1 million in net revenue within six months of launching.
