About this listen

Networking doesn't have to be awkward or expensive - even when you have no big name attached to you. I spent 4 days at FMX (VFX industry event) and discovered a completely different approach to making meaningful connections.

🔑 Key takeaways:

  • Why paying more for business passes is actually cheaper (speaker lounges access = 10x value)
  • The preparation paradox: logistics planning frees your mind for authentic connections
  • How to break into exclusive spaces with simple confidence (got my friend into a VIP dinner!)
  • My "uncomfortable for 5 minutes" rule that transforms networking anxiety

💼 Industry insights:

  • Immersive experiences getting bigger budgets (Netflix House)
  • AI reality check: 50% quality easy, final pixel quality still needs humans
  • Emerging markets in Africa/Middle East leveraging AI to compete globally

If you're tired of awkward business card exchanges and forced conversations, this is my honest look at approaching events as a genuine connection game rather than a sales opportunity.
