Shaping the Experiential Economy - #NYTechWeek

Hosted by
˜▾˜
In this era of hyper digitalization, we see a parallel, seemingly paradoxical consumer demand for real-life experiences. This dichotomy actually makes a lot of sense. The more our lives move online and our interactions get mediated by machines, the more we miss and crave physical interactions with other humans and the world around us. This is why we are so excited to bring a unique panel of founders building in the experiential economy space to Tech Week to discuss what they are building, current trends, pitfalls and opportunities in the space, and where they see the space going in the next decade. We will not only discuss trends in direct-to-consumer experiences but also cover how various businesses have excelled in using IRL opportunities for customer activation or employee retention. We will also discuss what it's like to fundraise in the space. The night will end with time for networking with others passionate about the IRL Renaissance happening today. PANELISTS: Radha Agrawal: Co-founder & CEO of Daybreaker, the global morning dance, music and wellness movement with a community of half a million people. Radha is also an angel investor in mostly female owned businesses. Justin Bolognino: Pioneer in immersive experiences that fuse technology, design, and human connection. As the founder of META and Unreality, Justin and his team have crafted multi-sensory experiences for Spotify, Google, and Samsung in collaboration with artists like St. Vincent and Skrillex for Coachella and SXSW. Virginia Frischkorn: Founder & CEO of Partytrick, a software platform revolutionizing how experiences are planned, executed, and scaled through smart design and data-driven insights. Prior to Partytrick, Virginia spent 15 years as a luxury events planner and was recognized by Vogue and Martha Stewart Weddings as one of the top 50 planners in the world. If you have any questions for the panelists, please send them in your RSVP and we will try to get to as many as we can at the end of the panel.
