Gilli Brend í Hoyvík
The business journey started at 18. I’m an entrepreneurial Photographer, Videographer, and Business Strategist who blends creativity with relentless strategic growth.
My focus is simple: combining creative excellence with strategic business acumen. I'm currently levelling up my skills with a Business Administration degree at IE University, all while building ventures and managing investments.
I’m constantly connecting the dots between killer content, smart investments and building the next big thing.
Ready to create, scale, and deliver.
Commercial Work

As a videographer for the handball events at the Paris 2024 Olympics, I captured moments that were broadcast globally, reaching audiences across various continents. The tournaments took place at the Pierre-Mauroy Stadium in Lille, France, from July 25 to August 11, 2024.
The matches were broadcast on channels like CNBC, USA Network, and E!, and streamed on platforms including HBO, Peacock and NBC Olympics.
