Now, a new generation at Starkey has arrived. Brandon’s vision for Starkey and its more than 5,000 employees around the world is not to be the biggest; it is to be the best. That starts with product performance, operational excellence and best-in-class customer service. But to truly be the best, Brandon knew he needed to position Starkey differently. He made the decision to push beyond the limits of science to make hearing aids into multi-functional hearing tech devices. In 2018, Starkey was the first to introduce hearing technology with integrated sensors and advanced health features. In February 2023, Starkey unveiled the most technologically advanced hearing aid in the world, Genesis AI. In 2024, Starkey did it again, outdoing even itself, by introducing the industry’s new flagship technology, Edge AI. Under Brandon’s leadership, Starkey is not only setting a new standard for hearing innovation, but continuously pushing the edge of what’s possible.

Brandon believes in the power of kindness. Starkey Cares, is Starkey’s public commitment to bringing people together under the common bond of caring for one another. The program has partnered with more than 2,000 hearing health professionals around the United States to get premium hearing technology to people who cannot afford it. Starkey Cares proudly donates to and supports many other local and national charities and organizations.

In 2019, Brandon was named to the George W. Bush Presidential Center‘s Executive Advisory Council. He served as Board Chair of the Hearing Industries Association from 2017-2021 and was re-elected chairman for a third term in 2025.
