Week of August 12, 2024
We had fun over the weekend at VeeCon in Downtown LA, where there was an impressive lineup of speakers.
My favorite fireside chat was with Bob Pittman, CEO of iHeartMedia. He also co-founded MTV during the cable TV revolution and was an executive at AOL during the dot com boom.
It was surreal to meet Gary Vee in person! I got to watch and experience him personally give feedback and advice to us attendees, just as you see him do on countless videos from his social channels. He is extremely generous and kind with his time, maintaining equal enthusiasm with the 100s of people he had met in that one day.
The AI Mediatech Mixer at VeeCon had a nice turnout for a casual meet-up to discuss the future of gaming, content creators, and entertainment.
Thanks to everyone who came out.
See you all soon! š“
