About this listen

 As traditional media struggles to keep pace, a new era of direct-to-audience content is redefining the landscape. Creators, not corporations, are now at the helm, reshaping how content is delivered and consumed. The time of waiting for the evening news broadcast or the morning paper is fading fast. Content now reaches audiences instantly, directly from the source to the consumer, bypassing the slow, antiquated channels that once dominated the media industry. And we shed more light on this with Murray Legg, Co-Founder Webfluential. Murray completed his Ph.D at 25 and joined Rand Merchant Bank on the "Class of" programme in 2009. He left to start Retroviral, an award-winning digital agency, and after that an influencer marketing platform called Webfluential. The business now has offices in South Africa, Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Croatia and the US. He designed a heart valve replacement for emerging market patients and holds a number of patents for that. He bought his first Bitcoin in 2013, and launched a project called PhotoChromic, allowing people to mint an NFT of their biometrically verified identity. He is an advisor to an international crypto hedge funds, runs his own investment fund in technology businesses, and consults to banks on their digital roadmaps.
