The year was 1996. Independence Day, Jerry Maguire and Twister were in the theaters. People everywhere were doing the Macarena, and Eric Clapton wanted to Change the World. 1996 also saw the formation of a company that would grow to become one of the largest full service advertising agencies in the Philadelphia area.
David Regn and Jason Brennan were in college in 1996. And they decided to cement a business relationship that actually began years earlier while both were still in high school. Needing some spending money, they decided to put their burgeoning entrepreneurial spirit to work by selling t-shirts.
It was a modestly successful endeavor. But it lit the fire… the fire to succeed, to run their own company, to change the face of advertising agencies.
So, while Will Smith was saving the world, David and Jason were just creating theirs. With an initial investment of $5,000 each, they founded Stream Companies. As with most start ups, times were not easy in the first few years. Yet they only needed to borrow money to stay afloat one time.
David’s mother Karen was the only one who would lend them the capital they needed to stay in business. It was most assuredly a wise investment choice by his mother. She was repaid in full within three months and Stream Companies has not looked back since.
One of the main reasons they have never looked back is because of their passion. A passion for business, for succeeding, and for overcoming long odds. If nothing else, David Regn and Jason Brennan are passionate… about everything they do.
And it shows.

At the end of the day what truly separates Stream Companies is that while others talk about accountability and putting their clients first, they actually do it. Day in, day out. Each day. Every day.
