President and CEO of NakedSword.com - Bay Area, CA

Recognized industry force Tim Valenti is the co-founder and CEO of the award-winning NakedSword.com, lauded as “the NetFlix of gay porn” by the San Francisco Chronicle. He has remained a pioneering figure in online video distribution and has an unparalleled understanding of the political, technological, and creative landscapes and how they impact the adult business.

In 2007, after nearly a decade in the industry, Valenti engineered a game-changing merger between NakedSword and AEBN and was subsequently named President of Falcon | NakedSword in 2015. Under the new banner, he oversees operations for the NakedSword network, Falcon Studios, Raging Stallion Studios, and Club Inferno.

Over the years, Valenti has become one of the industry’s most respected and innovative thought leaders, widely known for blurring the line between adult and mainstream entertainment. Valenti’s partnerships with major studios — as well as more niche production companies — have allowed NakedSword access to a remarkably vast video library. In addition, he continues to produce both adult and independent features, including the award-winning I Want Your Love, and still finds time to pen popular op-ed columns for opinion-making outlets including the HuffPost.
