George Raptis
George is an established founder who is ushering in the next generation of work as the Co-Founder of Breef – the first, online agency marketplace for high value, high-growth projects.
With a history of taking offline marketing processes online, George is creating a new marketplace – one that’s empowering brands and agencies to do better work, together — ultimately improving connectivity, productivity, and business outcomes. In less than five years, George has overseen operations and corporate responsibility to grow Breef into the largest agency brand, globally, building a community of more than 25,000 agencies across 25 countries.
Before Breef, George was a founding team member of fintech pioneer Credible, where he led operations and partnerships. He took the company to IPO in 2017 and was an instrumental force in its 2019 acquisition by FOX. George started his career as a lawyer at law firm Herbert Smith Freehills, representing global venture capital firms, and holds a patent for the technology he created at Credible.
Born and raised in Australia, George attended Bond University where he earned a bachelor’s degree in law. Passionate about remote work and mountain living, George co-founded The Aspen Office, a co-working space that enables people to make and create with flexibility in Aspen. George has a pay-it-forward mentality, and has served as Chair of the Australian Founders Network in New York.
