Prima Worldwide, a holding company and high-level facilitator for family offices, Fortune 1000 companies, leading entrepreneurs and ultra high-net-worth individuals, today announced its corporate wide rebranding to Avant Global. The name change marks a pivotal transition for the company, which has spent the past 16 years as a behind-the-scenes player for its clients and partners as it increasingly focuses on strategic investments in high-growth companies in the energy, technology, real estate, and consumer products industries.

Founder and CEO, Demetri Argyropoulos said, “I founded Prima Worldwide 16 years ago as a way of using relationships to help good ideas become great companies. As Avant Global, while our focus on human relationships remains part of our DNA, we look forward to an increased attention to making strategic investments.”

Beginning Monday, July 27th, Avant Global will have a new logo and redesigned website at www.avantglobal.com. The rebranding coincides with the company’s announcement of its strategic transition into three distinct business units.
