I’M WALKIN’ HERE WITH

Hey! Welcome to the Creator Economy NYC newsletter — the premier place for all things creator economy in the Big Apple.

I recently learned just how exceptional a tool CapCut is. I made this really cool edit on there with some photos from our event last week — check it out here, and make sure to follow us on IG!

Summer is upon us! So this week, I’m spotlighting a few upcoming events that we have in the pipeline (all the way through July!) — hope I get to see you at all or some of them!

My ask to you is that you share our events with at least ONE new person in the NYC creator economy. Short and sweet, let’s dive in.

Other stops along the way:

  • Upcoming events

  • Community callouts

  • Community perks

  • News bits

  • Job openings

PARTNERED WITH THE INFLUENCER MARKETING SHOW

Looking to network with the brightest minds in the creator and influencer marketing community from around the world? Look no further than what’s happening here in NYC June 3-4:

The Influencer Marketing Show is a day-and-a-half conference filled with insights and debate, alongside an unrivaled opportunity to meet the smartest brands, creators, agencies, and tech that drive the creator economy forward.

I’m also moderating a panel there with some of our very own in the NYC community focused on where influencer marketing fits in the media mix.

Hope I’ll see ya there.

CITY HAPPENINGS

Your summer '24 guide - can’t miss NYC creator economy events

Excited to share with you all a few amazing events we have planned in the coming months. We will certainly need volunteers to help run these events, so if there are any you’d like to help with, please let me know which!

Additionally, we have a few sponsorship slots open for these events, so if you are interested in exploring them, please reach out here.

We're teaming up with HelloCreator (an emerging creator company) for a unique virtual event experience (something new!).

Join us for a conversation between Pandora’s Founder, Tim Westergren, and renowned psychiatrist Dr. Paul M. Conti (Lady Gaga’s psychiatrist - ra ra) on the psychological implications of content creation.

​During this convo, Tim and Dr. Conti will explore why burnout is so persistent among creators and what you can do to improve your own creative experience.

Join us for an exclusive Content Creation Workshop and Mixer on May 21st, designed specifically for aspiring and seasoned creators alike, social media marketers, and anyone working within the creator economy

Beyond mixing and connecting over food and drinks, our friends at B&H Photo and Video will lead a workshop exploring the art of filming content. We'll cover essential techniques like camera angles and movement, placing a special emphasis on lighting and audio, two crucial elements that can elevate your content to professional standards.

After the workshop, you’ll get hands-on with gadgets available for you to test and create content with — plus two big gift card giveaways (FREEEEE STUFFFF!).

Special shoutout to Whalar for their partnership.

We’re excited to partner with beehiiv (the ultimate newsletter platform, who just raised a $33M Series B) for an awesome event during NYTechWeek. This will be well worth taking the morning off for…

Kickstart your day with enriching insights and convos over a taste of New York with bagels, coffee and mimosas alongside fellow leading content creators, digital media experts, founders, marketers and investors.

During our panel, we'll sit down with industry experts, including Alex Lieberman of Morning Brew, Preeya Goenka (COO of Beehiiv), and a soon-to-announce special guest. Together, we’ll explore the transformative power of newsletters, showcasing how they empower creators to own their audience and diversify their revenue streams beyond traditional social media platforms.

In addition to the panel, come mix and connect with fellow creators, founders, marketers, and investors who are shaping the creator economy.

We’re excited to partner with Creator Economy Live for an exclusive summer mixer and live podcast recording at the Mariott Marquis in the heart of NYC.

​The Creator Economy Live podcast brings us lively conversations about everything in the world of influencer marketing and the creator economy, hosted by the industry’s top voices, Brendan Gahan (Creator Authority) and Keith Bendes (Linqia). All brought to you by the biggest event for influencer marketers in the US, Creator Economy Live!

Seems so far away, but it’ll be her in no time.
