Bio

Gil Oved is a South African entrepreneur whose portfolio includes digital, activations, production and field marketing services.

Thirteen years after Oved and Ran Neu-Ner's online trading venture went bust in 2001, today they helm a R600-million turnover company that employs almost a thousand staff. That company is The Creative Counsel, South Africa's biggest advertising group, which runs up to 300 campaigns a year.

Over the years Oved and co-founder Neu-Ner have either purchased or started over a dozen companies, spanning digital, activations, production and field marketing services.

Oved also assumed the role of Young Presidents' Organisation's Chapter Chair for Johannesburg, and together with Neu-Ner, was awarded the 2013 Absa Unlisted Company Award for business excellence and entrepreneurship.

In 2014 Gil was one of the "Dragons" - a group of investors who offer ordinary South Africans investment in their businesses - in the Mzansi Magic reality show Dragons' Den.

In October 2016 he joined the M-Net reality series Shark Tank South Africa as one of the five "Sharks", in which entrepreneurs go up in front of a panel of investors who are willing to invest their own money and time in potentially lucrative business ideas.
