Tom ScottSpeaker and Booking Agent Information

The story of how "Tom and Tom" succeeded in the very competitive beverage sector shows the ability of entrepreneurial energy and creativity to make a dream come true. Nantucket Nectars rose to national popularity very rapidly, earning a spot on the "Inc. 500" list of the fastest-growing American businesses for five years running.

The Mercury Award for Advertising, Ernst & Young's Entrepreneur of the Year Award, several leadership, and design prizes, as well as a cameo in the documentary "Lemonade Stories," were just a few of the honors and distinctions Scott received for his innovative work as CEO. Nantucket Nectars was sold by Scott and his business partner to Cadbury Schweppes in 2002.

When Scott made an investment in Nantucket Television in 1998 and then acquired the channel in 2002, he started the transformation from juice guy to media guy. Scott started Plum TV in 2004, a network that targets wealthy people in their hangouts. Scott asserts that using vacation as an opportunity to connect with others is fantastic.

People "make significant life and purchase decisions." This is why Plum TV combines intelligent material like "Open Exchange," a collection of interviews with influential people in business, with premium lifestyle shows.

In his capacity as Chairman and CEO, Scott has assisted Plum TV in expanding from a single Nantucket-based station to a network of eight local channels and websites that now reaches over 14 million viewers annually. Additional 4.5 million homes in New England and Colorado may watch Plum onDemand. It is also accessible on Joost, iTunes, and all Delta flights.

In addition to working with Plum, Scott also acts as executive producer for the Neistat Brothers Television Show. DETAILS named Scott a 2007 Maverick and praised him as an "innovator in media" for his work with Plum. At the lecture platform, Scott shares his experience with Nantucket Nectars to give an inside look at the entrepreneurial mentality.

Speaking candidly and persuasively, Scott describes how he and his business partner transformed a tiny operation into a multi-million dollar franchise by starting with the straightforward premise of offering the public the highest quality, all-natural juices.

With PlumTV, Scott's second venture, he continues his entrepreneurial path and examines the challenges and rewards of starting local television channels without any prior industry knowledge. Executives everywhere are motivated by his narrative in both small and major enterprises.

Scott presently sits on the boards of directors for a number of businesses and is active in a number of community groups, including FlexCar, DoSomething, and Shackleton Schools. With his wife Emily, who founded J.Crew, and their two kids, Scott resides in Connecticut. In addition, he enjoys flying and surfing.
