About Peter Whent

Yesterday, Peter Whent built several businesses, making mistakes and learning along the way. Dealing with the establishment—investors, lawyers, the tax authorities, and others—helped him develop a healthy cynicism towards the phrase, "that's how it's always been done."

Today, Peter owns and runs a modestly celebrated creative coalition called BoldAF, where he challenges norms and breaks the rules to help brands uncover the big creative idea that will ignite their identity. Once he's found it, he transforms it into bold messaging that gives the brand personality and draws prospects in like the Pied Piper.
