This is a YouTube video titled "Untapped AI Startup Pitchfest Burbank 2023" containing a multi-speaker pitch event held in July 2023. Participants include Simon, Christina, and another speaker, discussing AI's impact on creativity, startup pitching, and a winning startup called SYNAP Box. The content focuses on AI innovation, customer insights, and startup recognition. There is no speaker named George Bandarian in the transcript.
You guys ready? All right, Simon. Today is the greatest time in human history to raise money. Everyone in the room needs to be learning and playing with AI. You need to be using it personally. You need to be using it in your business. How do you know if your content is good for real? Are your ads that entertain? Are your product packaging popping off the shelf? We are astronaut in a revolution in the creative workload. We help brands and retailers build immersive stores and immersive experiences. Emerging technology, it doesn't just solve problems, it often reframes the opportunity. 72% of the world's global population goes to work on a regular basis. Feeling disconnected. One out of three adults globally, myself included, suffer from insomnia. And long term sleep deprivation of course leads to serious health risk. Your customers are the only people who matter. So go to your customers, don't ask them, do you like my product? Find out what they hate, find out what hurts them. Find out what keeps them awake in the evening. Find out what they would love.
Like the Apple, we love what we're doing. We love that people recognize us, that what we're doing makes sense. It's really interesting in learning about pitching, just seeing what new startups are out there, what new ideas are coming around.
So I'm on a mission to help people lessen loneliness, be more connected, and I feel really thankful to do the work that I'm doing right now.
Super excited about SYNAP Box being our winner. We met a lot of these great startups at LA Tech Week and beyond and Christina stood out when I met her a few weeks ago.
