    Virtual Event

    The nightlife industry is full of amazing venues throughout the world. From the iconic Studio 54 and Limelight in New York City to modern standards like TAO and Pacha, there are countless businesses that appeal to consumers. This symposium will focus on these businesses — not just the product they offer, but how they make the product happen. Three panels will be offered ranging from history and future, food and beverage, to entertainment.

    Come learn from the best and brightest in the nightlife industry, those who operate the world's leading clubs, bars, lounges, and restaurants.

    Honorary Chair: Shaun Rose, Goldbar / Sweetwater Social
