The Information

Join us for our  third annual Creator Economy Summit, taking place  4/20/23.

The London West Hollywood

Creators are at the forefront of driving culture, social media trends and new entrepreneurial models. But they face mounting challenges, from a pullback in advertising to frequent product changes at the platforms—TikTok, Instagram and YouTube—where they reach fans. The year 2023 promises to be a turning point for these creators, as well as the advertisers and the hundreds of startups launched to help turn these online stars into thriving businesses.After a two-year boom in funding and hiring, companies are rethinking what creator features are paying off. Influencers and entrepreneurs are navigating leaner times—while trying to stay ahead of the next break-out technology. And the distance between traditional entertainment and online fandom continues to shrink.The Information’s Creator Economy Summit, taking place on Thursday, April 20th in Los Angeles, will put attendees at the forefront of this dynamic industry.
