Brian Myhre Joins as Co-Founder

Brian joins Matthew Fenton in formally co-founding Aprize, taking the lead on business development, partnerships, and board relations.

Dallas, Texas · December 12, 2024

Brian Myhre joined Aprize on December 12, 2024 as co-founder, formalizing a working partnership that had been quietly maturing alongside the company’s methodology work. Brian leads Aprize’s business development, partnerships, and board relations.

His background spans analysis, business development, and operations across elite organizations, with a focus on building reproducible, defensible methodology that leaders can stand behind in front of any board or major decision-maker. That orientation — rigor that is also legible to a non-technical audience — sits at the center of how Aprize talks to the nonprofit, philanthropic, and economic-development communities it serves.

“Most fundraising teams do not have a data department, and they should not need one to access this kind of intelligence,” Brian said. “Our job is to do the hard analytical work upstream so the field can spend its time on relationships, not on building lists.”
