500+ of our closest friends showed up to the Beverly Hilton today, and the room delivered everything we hoped for and then some. Thank you to our sponsors, speakers, committee members, volunteers, and our team for making it possible. And thank you to everyone who came out, got on the waitlist, and made this the kind of morning that reminds us why we do this.

Full recap coming soon. Tag us in your photos from the day.

67% of Americans play video games. And yesterday, a room full of LA marketers realized they’re part of that number. 🎮

Yesterday’s Gaming Brunch was SOLD OUT! The energy in that room reminded us exactly why we do this. Great conversations, real connections, and a few mind-blowing stats about gaming that had the whole room rethinking everything.

Thank you to the sponsors and partners who made it all possible: Xbox, Overwolf, Zynga Ads, Admazing Co., Liquid Advertising, and Audacy. And to our amazing committee members!

If you missed this one, don’t miss the next. Our Entertainment Brunch is 90–95% sold out. Link in bio. 🎟️
