Intersection

verticals

This year, we’re focusing on issues relating to intersection and innovation. The four verticals are: earth's environment, entertainment, social impact, and the creator economy. We’re encouraging every participant to tackle the problems plaguing today’s world and innovate ideas around them.

Earth's Environment
Our planet’s carbon footprint is growing exponentially so we must also explore how to be sustainable with technology.
Depiction of Entertainment's vertical
Entertainment
L.A. is the home world of entertainment. This intersection will bring together technology and all forms of production to create new products and ideas.
Depiction of Social Impact's vertical
Social Impact
Let’s create new spaces and ways to deepen our understandings of the people who surround us and don’t.
Depiction of Creator Economy's vertical
Creator Economy
The passion and creator ecosystem is an intersection of art, individual passion, and self starting.
