Discovering the value of the creator economy with Rich Kleiman

“The creator economy is a brand. It is not as much just individual. It's a certain creator and entity that has a voice in a community that they can galvanize and give them exclusive experience, assets, and whatever they will feel pride in.”
— Rich Kleiman

To build something valuable, you have to stay true to yourself. At least, that’s how Rich Kleiman built a multi-faceted enterprise and created a brand centered on media, sports, investments, and more. Through his career as a producer, music supervisor, music manager, and then Vice President of Roc Nation Sports, Rich created a vision for something larger than a business and discovered the value of the creator economy.

Recently, Rich joined Suzy Founder & CEO Matt Britton on the Speed of Culture podcast to discuss:

• Why “overnight success” always takes time and hard work.
• How the evolution of technology, the openness, and accountability of Web 3 will keep pushing the creator economy forward
• Why NFTs and the Metaverse will be the next fastest-growing trends in the digital space
