Pete Morre

Pete COULD have easily become yet another financial d-bag. Post Harvard where he earned his MBA, he could have easily gone right to investment banking and become “One Of Them.” You know. . .the types you’ll find in midtown Manhattan wearing exactly the same “uniforms” speaking exactly the same language, proud of the fact that nobody else understands what the F they’re talking about, and laughing about people like us with small businesses that “institutional capital would never even bother with.” (Never mind that 90% of all businesses in America have less than 50 employees and are considered small businesses.) It’s who we are. And it’s what we love. And we wouldn’t have it any other way. . . so let’s learn and get educated so we can have the last laugh.

Frankly, helping people get educated was one of reasons he went on to start Integrity Square (“ISQ”) in 2010. Prior to that, he was Head of the Active Lifestyle & Wellness Group at Sagent Advisors (2003-2010.) And before 2003, Pete was co-founder of FitnessInsite, a SasS sales management platform with 1500+ clients (based in AZ.) At FitnessInsite, Pete invested his personal capital, leveraged his credit cards and learned what it takes to manage a startup.

Integrity Square has played an active advisory role in 120+ mergers & acquisitions, private placements and advisory assignments across North America. Pete Moore and his team have also invested in passionate entrepreneurs at HigherDOSE, XTEND, and Promotion Vault. ISQ is now one of the leading boutique financial advisory firms focused on the $4.7T Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoor (“HALO”) sector.

ISQ saw a need for a deeper & more useful level of education in the HALO sector. In response, we launched the HALOTalks podcast, with 400+ completed interviews and over 100,000 downloads. HALO Talks has become a “must listen” for anyone working or investing in the sector. ISQ’s media properties also include his book (Time To Win Again: 52 Takeaways From Team Sports To Ensure Your Business Success), and the HALO Academy, an Executive Education Bootcamp Series meant for anyone at any level who wants to level up their business savvy.

Pete built his business and financial acumen on top of the foundation laid at three critical positions early in his career: Senior Associate at Brockway Moran & Partners, the private equity owner of Gold’s Gym International, Inc; worked as an Associate at Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette; and an Analyst at Chase Securities. (Now JP Morgan.)

Pete graduated from Emory University (BBA, 1994) and received his MBA from Harvard Business School (1999.) While at HBS, he co-founded IRON PLANET, the leading B2B auction site for used heavy equipment, which was sold to Ritchie Bros for $758 million.

His hobbies include: Football, Soulcycle, Pickleball, tennis, podcasting, amateur ventriloquism, pro bono DJ and fitness enthusiast.

Notable Stats: Wingspan 76”, 33 yard dash at 4.3 seconds, and future hot yoga recurring member in Manhattan Beach, CA.
