Building a Brand and Securing Multiple Rounds of Investor Funding Background

Background

Background

CUBE Recovery, founded by former college basketball player and coach Aaron M. Young, was born out of a need to improve the way orthopedic injuries are treated. Aaron, frustrated by the limitations of traditional ice bags, worked with a top-tier team of designers, engineers, scientists, physical therapists, and doctors to develop a line of state-of-the-art wearable thermodynamic devices. These devices, designed for surgical and athletic recovery, deliver precise heating or cooling during rehabilitation, without the hassle of ice bags. Additionally, CUBE expanded into performance gear with their CUBE Vest 1.0, aimed at first responders and military personnel, offering intelligent cooling and vital monitoring in extreme conditions.

Despite the innovation behind CUBE Recovery, the company needed a robust strategy to build brand recognition, attract investors, and secure funding to bring their products to market. This is where Signature Brand Factory came into the picture.
