Scott Samuel "Scooter" Braun (/brɔːn/ BRAWN; born June 18, 1981) is an American talent manager, entrepreneur, record executive, and the CEO of Hybe America, the North American subsidiary of South Korean entertainment company Hybe Corporation.[4][5][6] He is credited with having discovered Canadian singer Justin Bieber in 2008, whose success foresaw the establishment of Braun's record label RBMG Records, a joint venture with R&B singer Usher. Braun has also served in career management for artists including Ariana Grande, Kanye West, Demi Lovato, J Balvin, Ozuna, Dan + Shay, and the Kid Laroi, among others.[7][8]

He is also the founder of Schoolboy Records, co-founder of TQ Ventures and Mythos Studios, and founder of Ithaca Holdings, whose 2019 acquisition of Big Machine Records resulted in a publicized dispute with Taylor Swift.[2][9][10] Throughout his career, Braun organized concerts and tours including March for Our Lives[citation needed] and Hand in Hand, in support of victims of gun violence and natural disaster relief.[11][12] Active in film and television, he served as executive producer for the comedy series Dave, whose first season was the most-watched show in FX history.[13] Braun has been nominated for Grammy Awards in 2017 and 2022.
