Kurt Uhlir is called “The King of Scaling Companies” for good reason.
He’s a globally recognized Chief Marketing Officer, GTM architect, and growth operator who has been part of 60+ funding rounds and exits, was part of the small team leading an IPO ($880M), and has scaled multiple companies from early traction to $1.4B+ in revenue.
Kurt has led the go‑to‑market strategy for technologies now used daily by millions of people worldwide—at companies such as Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Garmin, and more.
In addition, he is the lead inventor on more than 20 issued patents for many of these technologies—a reflection of his ability to assemble diverse teams, see around corners, and turn innovative ideas into market‑defining products.
Today, Kurt serves as Chief Marketing Officer at ez Home Search, a consumer‑first real estate platform trusted by millions, built by the innovators behind many of the technologies people use every day. ez Home Search is creating a better way to discover real estate—privacy‑first, built for trust, and designed to empower consumers and the vetted experts who serve them.
Kurt has advised hundreds of senior executives—up to the President of the United States—and has been invited to participate in high‑level policy and business discussions at the White House.
He has delivered keynote talks to more than 100,000 people across multiple continents and is widely recognized as one of the top servant leadership speakers in the world—and one of the only full‑time operators openly sharing what actually works inside high‑growth companies.
