SUMMARY:The Future of Storytelling: AR/VR Turns Its Gaze on TV and Cinema
DESCRIPTION:The Future of Storytelling\nAR/VR Turns Its Gaze on TV and Cinema?\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tuesday\, March 20\, 2018\n6:00 pm to 8:30 pm\n6:00 pm: Reception and networking\n7:00 pm: Panel discussion (with Q&A) \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The way we tell stories is on the verge of a seismic shift in technology. Over the millennia\, storytelling has evolved from oral traditions shared around the campfire to viral videos shared with millions around the globe — and it’s not stopping there. Technologies such as AR and VR are disrupting TV and film makers everywhere from Hollywood to Bollywood. \nAs AR/VR shifts its gaze from gaming to cinema\, familiar 2-D rectangular displays are being replaced with new experiences that are deeply immersive\, interactive\, and personalizable. And investment is hot\, with more than $5B in VC investments. In a market projected to explode tenfold by 2020\, multiple startups are vying for lead roles in this new production. \nOur panel of founders and industry insiders will explore these and other issues. \n\nHow are startups raising capital and making money in mixed reality?\nWhat impact will AR/VR have on social media?\nHow are TV and film studios adapting to these new opportunities?\nWhat technical and social challenges stand in the way of mass adoption?\n\nJoin us March 20 to hear how these technologies are shaping the future of storytelling. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Moderator\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Jesse Damiani\, Founder and CEO\, Galatea \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Panelists\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Robin Sho Moser\, Founder and CEO\, eyecandylab \nLarry Cutler\, Founder and CTO\, Baobab Studios \nTed Schilowitz\, Futurist in Residence\, Paramount Pictures \nMaddie Callander\, Director of Operations\, Boost VC \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View or download flyer for event: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Download the printable PDF. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Stanford Faculty Club\nStanford University\n439 Lagunita Drive\nStanford\, CA 94305\nDriving directions and parking information

SUMMARY:Founders’ Series: Strategies for Negotiating Term Sheets
DESCRIPTION:Founders' Series\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Strategies for Negotiating Term Sheets \nwith Stephanie Zeppa and Andrew Romans\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tuesday\, March 27\, 20186:00 pm to 8:30 pm6:00 pm: Reception and networking7:00 pm: Fireside Chat \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				San Francisco(Address will be sent to registered attendees.) \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				After intense networking\, intro requests\, and pitches\, you have finally landed a term sheet. Signing it will give you much-needed growth capital to take your startup to the next level. You will be able to hire more team members\, build out the game plan\, and zero in on the needs of your best customers. Most importantly\, it will let you\, the founder\, get back to building the business instead of fundraising. \nUnfortunately\, this is often the time when most startup founders agree to terms that they regret later. \nJoin us for a lively discussion from two important perspectives: a corporate attorney and a VC. After a breakdown the do’s and don’t’s of terms sheet negotiation\, attendees will have an opportunity to participate in a Q&A session. \nThere will also be a drawing for a free signed copy of Andrew’s book\, Masters of Corporate Venture Capital. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Panelists\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Stephanie Zeppa\, Partner\, Sheppard Mullin\, Corporate & Securities Group \nStephanie has extensive experience representing both private and public companies in mergers and acquisitions\, investments\, strategic transactions and corporate governance matters.
