Longevity: Investable Science
Hosted by Monarch Athletic Club & The Reason | LA Techweek, October 2025
Longevity isn’t a trend—it’s the next great asset class. For venture capitalists and private equity leaders, healthspan is portfolio performance. This session makes the case that the science of aging is now quantifiable, investable, and poised to drive outsized returns.
We’ll cover:
-- Longevity as a quantifiable performance strategy: why extending healthspan is not charity—it’s alpha.
-- Metrics that matter: from biological age curves to resilience indexes, the hard data that separates real plays from wishful thinking.
-- Investment frameworks for the next decade: how to evaluate aging‑focused startups with the same precision you apply to fintech or AI.
And because conviction starts with experience, the night closes with a Monarch signature hybrid high‑intensity strength and conditioning session—a workout engineered for elite decision‑makers. It’s not just a class, it’s a stress test: proof that performance, resilience, and endurance are as critical in the body as they are in the portfolio.

Experience the Future of AI Filmmaking
Where Storytelling Meets Investment Opportunity
The future of AI filmmaking isn’t just about technology — it’s about building sustainable creative and business models.
This event is for investors and creatives (Film, media, tech) alike
You’ll hear the truths from insiders:
Monetization models: distribution, financing, and equity crowdfunding for AI films.
Investment opportunities: where early capital creates outsized returns.
Sustainable strategies: how independent creators can thrive without chasing algorithms.
Watch an exclusive concept trailer from a Neu Wave developed AI feature that has already secured guaranteed domestic distribution from a major distributor affiliated with Focus pictures, Netflix, Max, etc— a first in this new era.
Hollywood and major studios are already experimenting with AI filmmaking — but they’re not talking about it publicly for fear of backlash. So how can independent filmmakers use AI and benefit from it?
Flash News! 🚀 We’re excited to welcome the continue partnership with two amazing AI filmmaking platforms- MiniMax, minimax.io and our newest partnership — Dreamina AI, Dreamina.capcut.com by Bytedance! They’ll be joining us to share some thrilling updates and big plans for the future of AI filmmaking.
Exclusive Panel Discussion
Hear directly from the pioneers shaping the next wave of film and media:
• Siyuan (Leanna) Ren- MiniMax- VP, Global Growth & Marketing, minimax.io,
• Jenna Cao- Dreamina AI- Global Dreamina GTM advisor dreamina.capcut.com
• Nicholas Barnes – VFX Supervisor on Avengers, Infinity War, The Mandalorian, Star Wars: Episode VIII, Star Trek Beyond, Captain America, Civil War, Bumblebee, Aquaman
• Nik Kleverov- Memory maker, OpenAI first feature film Critterz.tv filmmaker

This isn’t just talk. It’s about transitioning — and thriving — in a shifting film industry. Producers, writers, DPs, editors, and actors — yes, especially actors — will walk away with a clear sense of how AI filmmaking can transform their careers.
We know there’s fear. Change is uncomfortable, but you can’t stop AI from coming. The choice is simple: resist or adapt. The good news? You don’t need to be a techie to step into AI filmmaking. If you’re already in film, you hold the advantage. The fundamentals of storytelling and performance remain the same — only the workflow shifts. Master that workflow, and your craft is not replaced, but expanded with new tools.
See the Prototypes Redefining Cinema
As proof-of-concept, you’ll also experience 20 groundbreaking finalist films from the Neu Wave AI Film Festival neuwavefest.com — selections that wowed Venice film festival audiences and projects from bold creators like the AI filmmaker behind OpenAI’s feature Critterz.
Why Attend?
• Get insider strategies before they go mainstream.
• Network with investors, producers, and creators building the next wave.
• Position yourself early in a fast-moving creative economy.
• And yes — be inspired by films that prove where the future of cinema is headed.
