Billion Dollar Boy

Having spent over a decade at the forefront of the creator economy, Billion Dollar Boy (BDB) continues to push boundaries, boldly investing in new ventures and shaping the future for creators and brands.

Since launching in 2014, founders Ed East and Thomas Walters have grown BDB into an independent creator-first social agency that transforms how the world’s biggest brands build through creator work. 

BDB Group includes Companion, our proprietary AI platform that connects brands with over 200 million creators, and FiveTwoNine, a global platform dedicated to investing in creator careers and ventures. 

BDB was among the first global influencer agencies and we have partnered with some of the world’s leading brands, including Heineken, Unilever,  PepsiCo and L’Oréal.

BBD client work has been awarded at Cannes Lions, the Global Influencer Marketing Awards, Webby Awards, The Drum Awards and Adweek.
