Just steps from the iconic pier, we'll bring together brilliant and engaging humans across media, entertainment, and tech for cocktails, hosted appetizers, and the kind of conversations that only happen here in the Entertainment Capital of the Universe.
We're thrilled to have as our Featured Guest - Craig German, a seasoned executive with transformative experience in the Media & Entertainment industry!
