Working hard and reaping the benefits of taking internal and external business risks allows people to look for more investment opportunities. Yielding rewards, however, is challenging, as every investment walks on unexplored terrains, each having its own narrative. Chris Martin is determined to take risks and explore new markets not discovered in real estate and commercial enterprises. Having built multiple companies from square one and turning them into successful and profitable investments, he has the skills, knowledge, and grit to advance future investment opportunities.
Hailing from Central Missouri, Chris and his family had humble beginnings. Still, they were committed to working towards achieving their goals and dreams. His grandfather was someone he looked up to; his lessons on effort, dedication, and determination have made him the man he is today. This is how GlenMartin was founded. A 4th generation descendant of the founder of the organization William Christopher Martin. In 2010 Chris and three other founding partners launched Bluebird Media 2010 and served on its board for ten years.
Bluebird Media company was built to provide underserved regions with telecommunication and internet services. Chris is adamant about providing those services to underserved markets while considering the untapped opportunities waiting to be taken. As a result, he has built thousands of telecommunication towers worldwide, creating numerous means for people in those areas to stay connected to each other.
After ten years of developing BlueBird, Chris decided to exit with the sale of the company. His investment records show that selling Bluebird Media was a good idea and executed perfectly in the market. His commitment to serving underserved communities was serviced well by exiting to one of the largest Private Equities in the world, Macquarie Infrastructure Partners.
Since then, Chris has been primarily focused on launching GlenMartin as a small Private Equity group. One of the first funds he found is centered around the Ketsali Luxury Home and Development program. With this, he aims to help investors make an alternative investment in a stable quality real estate asset that generates steady cash flow. His first model house launched in October 2022 and is currently underway.
Having two decades of entrepreneurial experience, Chris can understand investors’ needs and requirements fully. He focuses on what an investor looks for in a quality investment: stable return with managed risk in quality assets. With a passion for finding underserved markets, Chris explores markets well outside the United States’ boundaries. Aside from that, he is also developing an investment center located in the Dallas Design District. This interactive video and conferencing facility is fitted with the latest audio, visual, conferencing, and lighting technology. It seeks to build a wealth of knowledge around investment strategies and opportunities in the US and abroad. It aims to grow a new community of investors in this up-and-coming Dallas Design District.
Having achieved all he has, Chris continues working toward his goals and aspirations. He is determined to explore new avenues and markets to penetrate, carrying GlenMartin’s heritage forward as it gave him a great start in business. Bluebird Media was an enormous accomplishment; he’s proud to say he was part of it. Now GlenMartin is expanding into new realms of investment and capital raising, growing nicely as a global developer. It won’t be long before Martin becomes a well-known name in the investment community.
