Panel: Creator Economy – Digital Fame to Mainstream Success
Antone’s Nightclub (Upstairs) at 11:30 a.m. || Badge holders prioritized
Digital superstars — creators who have amassed millions of followers across social media platforms — once occupied their own “lane” of popular culture. But as audience habits continue to evolve and young consumers heavily favor YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat over traditional media channels, these creators have leveraged their deeply engaged audiences to create lucrative and increasingly diverse careers. They aren’t just posting popular videos and photos — they are on mainstream magazine covers. They are launching coffee, beauty and energy drink companies. They are ambassadors of some of the world’s most vibrant brands. This discussion will bring together talent and executives to talk about building a career online and translating digital fame into mainstream success, all while — especially for the vast majority of creators under age 25 — navigating burgeoning adulthood and navigating the mental health pitfalls of the internet.
Panelists: Jason Newman, founder, Untitled Entertainment; Remi Bader, content creator; Megan Bycel, director of Entertainment Partnerships, Meta.
Moderator: Brent Weinstein, chief development officer, Candle Media.
