🚨 New investment - Electrify Video Partners has made a strategic investment in Mentour Pilot and Mentour Now, two of YouTube's leading aviation channels! Why am I thrilled about this partnership? 🛫 Mentour Pilot, founded by airline pilot and creator Petter Hörnfeldt is the go-to source for in-depth aviation analysis reaching 2 million subscribers. 📈 This investment aligns perfectly with Electrify's mission to scale informative and inspirational creator businesses. 🚀 We're set to transform Mentour Pilot into a global aviation media franchise while preserving the authenticity fans love. Petter said "I'm really excited to start this journey with Electrify - it will give me access to a bigger team, which means I can create more content, and even better content for my audience, whilst continuing to grow the Mentour Pilot brand." At Electrify, we're passionate about empowering creators to reach new heights. With Mentour Pilot and Mentour Now joining our portfolio alongside channels like Veritasium, Astrum and Simple History, we're continuing to invest in the future of digital content. More investments coming soon.. #creatoreconomy #investor
