Powerful Executive Makes Remarkable Visit to New York City, Leaving a Notable Impression
Noggin Boss, a top startup based at Grand Canyon University's Canyon Ventures, is making waves in the sports apparel industry. Co-founded by GCU Colangelo College of Business graduates Gabe Cooper and Sean Starner, the company has been busy forging partnerships with celebrities, athletes, and major sports organisations.
One of the highlights of their recent endeavours is the production of Chrome Dome hats for men and Bling Boss hats for women, licensed by the NFL. These stylish caps are set to hit the market weeks into the NFL season. Notable figures such as Tom Brady, DJ Khaled, Ice Cube, Allen Iverson, Jordan Chiles, Dawn Staley, and Logan Paul have already shown their support for the brand.
Gabe Cooper showcased Noggin Boss at Fanatics Fest, a fan convention that attracted over 125,000 attendees to the Javits Center in New York. During the event, Matt Dennish, a 39-year-old teacher from York, Pennsylvania, donned a Philadelphia Eagles Noggin Boss hat after finishing third in the first Fanatics Games sports skills competition.
Noggin Boss also collaborated with Lids at Fanatics Fest, offering customised hats in real time. The company's popularity surged when Tom Brady was spotted wearing a Noggin Boss hat with the company's logo (TB) in front of thousands of fans and social media followers.
The brand's success has not gone unnoticed by GCU's student-run design agency, Canyon Creative. They have fortified their partnership with Noggin Boss, with Canyon Creative expected to create short-form videos to support the company's digital marketing efforts. Chris Murphy, Canyon Creative director and associate professor of design, is excited about the partnership.
Last year, Noggin Boss funded two scholarships for Canyon Creative and CCOB, further solidifying their commitment to supporting the GCU community. The company is also expanding its product range to include caps for NBA, NHL, and selected college teams.
Rumours of a deal between Noggin Boss and the organisers of the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy have surfaced, but as of now, these remain unconfirmed. However, the brand has finalised a deal to sell hats at the event, should the deal materialise.
Sam Jerrell, a senior majoring in digital film with an emphasis in production, is looking forward to working with Noggin Boss. As the company continues to grow and innovate, it's clear that they are set to make a significant impact in the sports apparel industry.
