VP, Marketing

The Pavilion Story: From Spark to Global Movement Pavilion began as a bold experiment to solve a personal problem. In the early 2010s, founder Sam Jacobs realized that the higher he climbed in go-to-market leadership, the lonelier the journey became. Those peer conversations—equal parts therapy, strategy, and camaraderie—sparked a global community of GTM professionals united by shared learning and support. Today, Pavilion serves nearly 10,000 members worldwide with industry-leading retention and profitability. At over $10M ARR, the brand is synonymous with excellence in GTM leadership. Our next chapter: strengthen the Pavilion brand, deepen the member experience, and ensure every professional who joins not only finds value but thrives.
