Meet the Founders
Nina Levic, Brummell's CEO and Co-Founder, brings her expertise in business strategy and legal compliance to the brand. With a Master’s in Business Law, she has played a pivotal role in driving Brummell’s growth and ensuring its innovations are legally protected. Her strategic vision has positioned Brummell as a trailblazer in luxury motorcycle fashion, earning the brand significant media recognition and accolades in fashion technology.
Brummell's journey began with co-founder Nino Karas, a serial entrepreneur and passionate motorcyclist who experienced firsthand the struggle of balancing protective riding gear with professional attire. This challenge led to the inception of Brummell, a brand that bridges the gap between high-performance safety gear and elegant, everyday wear. Nino's entrepreneurial career took off at 21 when he sold his first company to T-Mobile. Since then, he has earned prestigious honors, including being named among Bloomberg's Top 50 Most Influential Figures in the Adria region and winning the European Business Awards’ Entrepreneur of the Year.
Beyond Brummell, Nino has co-founded other successful ventures like CodeWell AI, which won the €500,000 grand prize at the How To Web Spotlight, and Letz, crowned Product of the Year by Product Hunt. His passion for innovation, paired with his love of motorcycles, drives Brummell's mission to redefine motorcycle apparel by prioritizing safety without sacrificing elegance.
We’re thrilled to support Nina and Nino as they reshape the intersection of fashion and motorcycle gear. Welcome to the family, Brummell! We look forward to being part of your continued success.
