Some topline observations and thoughts from VidCon last week. Let me know if these are helpful to your business. 🔥TikTok is acting like they have nothing to fear. Call it bravado, arrogance of scale, a belief DJT wins and sticks with his recent ban reversal (bad bet, he invented it and it’s only taken on bipartisan power since) they are pushing until they can’t. Which - actually - is the best move. For valuation at sale. For longevity if not banned it. Right play. 🔥Sports continue to pivot to view social more like gaming (reach and engagement not revenue). Ian Trombetta and YouTube talked about letting creators create w/ National Football League (NFL) assets. And keep the money. Playbook from what we did together at Activision Blizzard in 2015. Dana White and Slap Fighting Championship (SFC) doing the same. Letting creators livestream from the venues. Very different than Ultimate Fighting Championship rules. 🔥The consumer / professional dual nature of the show means there is now a “secret second VIP VidCon venue where the “people” can’t enter w/o a wristband. Get creator safety. But not sure the consumers who paid to go knew the “hold backs” off the main floor. 🔥Increased diversity across the show ecosystem. Didn’t feel like the OC at all. 🔥AI tools to help creators make better stuff and market it better is coming. Enablement and improvement. Not replacement. Spotter is leading the way here. What big trends did I miss? #vidcon #litrendingtopics #creatoreconomy

One of my priorities at Global Gaming Expo is this year it to show Mark Antal from Staked AI the incredible betting and gaming industry from the inside out. Here's our plan and who we want to connect with... We are really excited to hit up a few different events throughout the week. The GeoComply Challenger Series and SBC "Vegas Baby" are a couple of key events we are pumped for. What other events should we check out? Mark’s especially eager for the NEXT.io and SeventySix Capital panels with Wayne Kimmel, Lloyd Danzig, Jesse Learmonth, Benjie Cherniak, Karolina Pelc, Brandt Iden, and Pierre Lindh⚡️to explore the future of gaming from an investment and operator perspective. He’s passionate about using AI to solve key pain points for operators and content creators, and is acutely focused on using personalization to maximize engagement among casual fans. If you’re into data, personalization, automation, or tapping into the next wave of sports betting adopters, let's get you and Mark in touch.

🌐 The World is a Pulse, and We’re All Connected 🌐 In today’s Digital Era, we’re all part of a heartbeat that spans the globe. Just last week, I stumbled onto Riot Games’ #Worlds2024 Opening Ceremony by pure chance, and WOW—what a show! Between Linkin Park and Ashnikko, it was clear that the digital age is more than just a timeline; it’s a powerful connection that binds us all. Within seconds, I shared some incredible music with friends, and just like that—3 new fans for Dead Sara! This is what makes our era unique: we have the power to spread creativity, ideas, and unity faster than ever before. 🌍 In my latest blog post, I dive into this idea of digital connection and what it means for the future. What if we stopped seeing borders and started working toward something greater, like a truly connected world (or hey, even Mars)? 👽 Check out my post if you’re ready to think big, and let’s create a world where every connection counts! 🔗https://lnkd.in/g7dqF7ee #DigitalEra #GlobalConnection #PerfectMatchResumes #LeagueOfLegends #ElonMusk #FutureOfHumanity #RiotGames #Worlds2024
