He is the Founder and Managing Partner of PTK Global, whose portfolio includes dozens of ventures, including Udio (AI music), Beta Technologies, Gracias Madre and Faves (Climate Candy).
Wall has a proven eye for breakout potential - his early investments include Akamai, Facebook, and KeVita. He co-founded Dreamscape Immersive (now Dreamscape Learn), the VR learning platform and Flipper’s World, a lifestyle brand built around roller skating culture. Earlier in his career, he built one of the first major web design firms, scaling it to 38 offices and 3,000 employees worldwide.
A lifelong activist and impact investor, Wall has consistently harnessed media to drive awareness and change. He’s known for producing some of the world’s most ambitious, media convergent live music events seen by billions, often centered on urgent global causes. He founded Control Room, a production company born from the success of Live 8, the first live event to reach over a billion viewers and the first to win an Emmy for interactive content. He later co-founded Live Earth with Vice President Al Gore - an unprecedented climate-focused concert series that set streaming records and launched a global movement.
Throughout his career, Wall has developed and produced hundreds of live musical shows working with legendary artists including Bob Dylan, Prince, Elton John, Jay-Z, Madonna, Pink Floyd, and Michael Jackson. His honors include Billboard’s Humanitarian of the Year, the Ellis Island Medal of Honor, and awards from EMA, MIDEM, and GQ for his environmental leadership.
