Rob Brinkman’s journey from college tennis player to Wall Street executive and billion-dollar company builder has been guided by a consistent principle: faith and business are inseparable. In a conversation with Rabbi Rami Goldberg on Biblical Money, Brinkman explained how he refused to “punch the clock” without bringing God into his work. This philosophy shaped his leadership style, where accountability to a higher power informed his decision-making and mentorship. After leading a company with 1,400 employees to a billion-dollar exit, Brinkman shifted his focus to helping smaller entrepreneurs, emphasizing that true success is measured by purpose as much as profit.Now CEO of Virtual HQ, Brinkman is applying his faith-driven leadership to cutting-edge technology. His company builds immersive 3D environments, including a proposed virtual experience for America’s 250th Independence Day celebration that could allow students to “converse” with Abraham Lincoln. He also highlights the biblical foundations of American business, challenging skeptics to read the Bible themselves. Brinkman’s story embodies the motto “great business, greater purpose”—a reminder that entrepreneurship, when rooted in faith and service, can transform not just companies but entire communities.
