Who is Patrick Hadley

I am an entrepreneur who loves building businesses, investing in startups, and helping other entrepreneurs succeed. My journey has taken me from creating award-winning marketing campaigns for major networks to developing financing solutions for growing businesses.

​

My last company, Hadley Media, was a pioneer in experiential marketing, live events, PR, and media. We built an award-winning experiential marketing agency that produced events in U.S. and international markets at some of the world's most prestigious venues and conventions including SXSW, Comic-Con, Fashion Week, Cannes, CES, Coachella, and Advertising Week.

​

Our client roster read like a who's who of entertainment: FOX, FX, CARTOON NETWORK, ADULT SWIM, FOOD NETWORK, SYFY, TBS, and many more. We didn't just create events—we created experiences that connected brands with their audiences in meaningful ways.

​

I sold Hadley Media a few years ago, marking another successful exit in my entrepreneurial journey.

The Entrepreneurial Journey

​

Like any entrepreneur worth their salt, I've had both successful exits and what I call 'successful failures'—those invaluable learning experiences that teach you more than any MBA program ever could. Each venture, whether it soared or stumbled, added to my understanding of what it takes to build and scale businesses.

My entrepreneurial experience spans the full spectrum of business building: leadership, marketing, strategic planning, sales, and day-to-day operations. I've learned that successful businesses aren't just about great ideas—they're about great execution, great people, and access to the right resources at the right time.

Passion for Startups, Investing, and AI Innovation

What drives me most is working with great people to build great businesses. I'm passionate about the startup ecosystem—both as an entrepreneur building companies and as an investor backing other visionary founders through Momentum Growth Partners. There's something magical about that moment when a business idea transforms into a thriving company that creates value for customers, employees, and communities.

I love the problem-solving aspect of entrepreneurship, the strategic thinking required to scale businesses, and the relationships you build along the way. Every business challenge is a puzzle waiting to be solved, and I've found that my diverse experience across industries gives me a unique perspective on solutions.

Recently, I've become fascinated by AI's potential to transform how we build and scale businesses. Learning to code with AI assistance opened my eyes to how these technologies can enable small teams to punch above their weight class. Through Momentum Growth Partners, I'm now launching and investing in companies that utilize AI to achieve what once required massive resources and teams.

The common thread across all my ventures—whether it's MyFinancingOptions.com, Biglio.com, or our AI-driven investments—is democratization. I believe in removing barriers and giving more people access to tools, resources, and opportunities that can transform their businesses and lives.

Current Ventures: Building the Future

Biglio.com - Empowering Creators to Tell Their Story

Biglio gives creators everything they need to write, organize, and turn their book into a professional audiobook—then makes it easy to publish and share. We're helping creators reach listeners who are searching for fresh stories and unique voices. With Biglio, creators can write, publish, and connect with their audience—all in one place. It's about democratizing the publishing process and giving every storyteller the tools they need to reach their audience.

MyFinancingOptions.com - Democratizing Business Finance

MyFinancingOptions.com represents the convergence of my entrepreneurial experience and my passion for helping other business builders succeed. Having navigated financing challenges across multiple companies, I discovered a vast network of funding options that most entrepreneurs never know exist. I decided to build a platform that offers access to these financing relationships and provides calculators and analytical tools entrepreneurs need to make smart capital decisions.

Momentum Growth Partners - Building AI-Driven Futures

Through Momentum Growth Partners, we're building and investing in AI-driven companies that harness artificial intelligence to achieve exceptional impact with minimal resources. Having learned to code with AI assistance, I've seen firsthand how these technologies enable small teams to accomplish what once required massive organizations.

Our approach focuses on three key areas:

​

AI-Driven Innovation: Building and investing in groundbreaking AI platforms that transform businesses

Strategic Growth: Offering cutting-edge resources and bold strategies for AI-powered ventures

Powerful Alliances: Forging dynamic partnerships within the tech ecosystem to maximize success through collaborative innovation

What excites me most about AI is its democratizing potential—just like MyFinancingOptions.com democratizes access to capital and Biglio democratizes publishing, AI democratizes capabilities that were once exclusive to large corporations.

Recognition and Community Involvement

​

I'm honored to be a member of the Forbes Agency Council and have served as a former board member for the Chamber of Commerce. Chosen to participate in the United States Navy's "Leaders To Sea" program. (I got to land and catapult off of an aircraft carrier!). I regularly speak and lecture at industry events, sharing insights from my entrepreneurial journey and the lessons learned along the way.

These speaking opportunities allow me to connect with other entrepreneurs, share practical knowledge, and hopefully inspire others to pursue their business dreams with confidence.

Let's Connect and Build Together

Entrepreneurship can be a lonely journey, but it doesn't have to be. I believe in the power of entrepreneurs helping entrepreneurs, and I'm always open to connecting with fellow business builders, especially those exploring AI-driven solutions or looking to democratize access to tools and resources.

Whether you're launching your first startup, scaling an existing business, looking for financing guidance, exploring AI applications, interested in creating content through Biglio, or just want to talk shop about the entrepreneurial journey, I'd love to hear from you.

Through Momentum Growth Partners, I'm actively seeking AI-driven companies to invest in and partner with. If you're building something that harnesses AI to achieve exceptional impact with minimal resources, let's connect.

Feel free to reach out if I can contribute to your success. After all, the best part of building successful businesses is helping others do the same.
