Thuzio is one of two companies founded by Tiki Barber (New York Giants), Mark Gerson (GLG), and Jared Augustine (Seamless/GrubHub). In 2012, Thuzio launched an online marketplace for booking professional athletes. The original marketplace is now branded Julius, a leading venture-backed influencer marketing software platform. While building the software business, the team responded to demand for live athlete appearances by launching an events arm. In 2017, the events arm was separated as an independent company, maintaining the Thuzio brand.
First introduced in 2014, our national event series provides unrivaled access to sports icons in premium hospitality settings for a business membership community. We will host 100+ member events in 2020, including marquee events at the Super Bowl, NFL Draft, NBA All-Star Weekend, and The Final Four. Thuzio's membership base boasts seven of the top ten U.S. banks, six of the top ten U.S. consulting firms, and four of the top ten B2B SaaS companies.
