Formerly Fortify Management Group, Ecos enters a new era led by Rawleigh Williams III and founder Daniel Gresham

COSIGN is proud to spotlight the official launch of Ecos Group, a rebranded evolution of Fortify Management Group, now headquartered in Dallas. With a sharp focus on athlete business management, Ecos is pioneering a new model centered around data-driven operations, ownership, and long-term growth for elite athletes and entertainers.

Founded by Daniel Gresham, Ecos is more than a management firm—it’s a forward-thinking BuildOps company positioned to disrupt the traditional agency landscape.

“Ecos is the first BuildOps firm in sports and entertainment. It is designed to help athletes manage what is while building what should be,” said Daniel Gresham, President and Founder of Ecos Group. “Bringing Rawleigh on reflects exactly what Ecos stands for in terms of strategic leadership, cultural fluency, and a long-term vision for athlete-owned infrastructure.”

Joining Gresham as Managing Partner is Rawleigh Williams III, a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree and the former co-head of Milk & Honey Sports. Williams brings a unique blend of front-office insight, entrepreneurial experience, and cultural connectivity—making him a strategic asset as Ecos redefines how athletes manage their businesses, brands, and futures.

Together, Gresham and Williams aim to empower a new generation of athletes to own their infrastructure, leverage data, and build generational wealth beyond the game.

As the sports and entertainment industries continue to evolve, Ecos Group stands as a new model—rooted in excellence, innovation, and legacy-building.
