Investors, founders, and entrepreneurs gathered at the Ritz-Carlton in Half Moon Bay for the Draper Extravaganza, drawing attendees from Korea, Colombia, Australia, and Kazakhstan. The event showcased flying cars, blockchain, and NFTs while mixing education and networking for startups, corporates, and high-profile leaders.

I'm meeting amazing investors, founders, dreamers, changemakers, people from every corner of the world. I mean, there's folks here from Korea, from Colombia, from Australia, from Kazakhstan.
And one of the things I really love about this event, it not only educates you, but it gives you the insights, the tools, and the techniques you need to get to the next level, especially during this time in history.
A lot of different ideas, technologies, flying cars, everything like blockchain, NFT. Everyone from my industry was here.
The Ritz-Carlton is a beautiful venue, especially for a networking event like this, or bringing all the corporates, all the CEOs and startups. It's been phenomenal.
Lots of super intelligent people. Everybody's got great attitudes and really looking to help each other.
People who are going to challenge you. Taking away a lot of new ideas from multiple fields. It's like a melting pot of cultures, ideas, innovation, problem solvers, and risk takers, and like the crazies and everybody, right?
The education, the networking. I don't know how you topped last year, but somehow you did. It has been just fantastic.
It's the time now where great businesses are built and that the future is bright and shiny ahead of us.
