/ About this event

Yamaha Music Innovations Fund and Pioneer Square Labs present From the C-Suite to the Founder's Seat, a dynamic panel discussion with former Media & Entertainment executives who have left their roles to build startups in the $500B creator economy. The event is sponsored by DLA Piper.

The panelists:

🎹 Oana Ruxandra, ex-Chief Digital Officer at Warner Music Group, now building PopHatch, an AI Music Label

🎥 Ben Relles, ex-Head of Innovation at YouTube, now building Make Believe, an AI lab focused on building new types of video interactivity with creators

🏀 Jay Majithia, ex-Head of Media & Entertainment Strategy at Amazon, now building Offside, an AI creative tool suite purpose-built for sports creators

💎 Evan Parker, ex-General Manager of The Athletic, now building Onit with Alexis Ohanian, a new trading card company

The panel will be immediately followed by food, drinks, and networking. Last year's event was packed, so RSVP for approval soon. Limited space.

This event is a part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by the top founders, funds, and companies to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
