Powering Great Entrepreneurs The TEAM Group (TG), LLC is dedicated to helping entrepreneurs build, accelerate and operate great businesses. The Team Group was formed by longtime serial-entrepreneurs Cliff Boro and Tom Broadhead. Prior to founding TG, Cliff and Tom’s operating experiences include founding and running Infogate (sold to AOL Time Warner in 2003) and Zui.com (sold to Saban Brands in 2012). Through their co-founding of CVT Ventures, Cliff and Tom have helped numerous companies including Say Media (former Videoegg), mSnap (sold to MarketTron in 2011), Luxology (sold to The Foundry in 2012). The TEAM Group principals have raised over $100mm in venture capital for portfolio companies and have forged business development partnerships with leading companies such as Comcast, Best Buy, Scholastic, CNN, and USA Today. The TEAM Group has two divisions, TEAM Ventures and TEAM Services. TEAM Ventures is dedicated to co-founding new companies with entrepreneurs, and TEAM Services provides a full-service backend accounting, finance and administrative support platform to entrepreneurs. Most entrepreneurs hire great finance teams either too early or too late. We've created a platform to give entrepreneurs the benefit of having a world-class finance team at a fraction of the cost. We are compensated on a fixed monthly retainer; we do not surprise our clients with big bills.
