Randi Zuckerberg’s unique background puts her at the forefront of both technology and the arts. As an early employee at Facebook and the creator of Facebook Live, she was on the front lines of shaping Web 2.0 technology. She is also an accomplished artist who has performed on Broadway, won three Tony awards for producing Broadway shows: Hadestown, Oklahoma! and The Inheritance, and produced the first-ever simulcast of a commercial Broadway show during the height of COVID.
Now she is putting these two worlds together at the start of Web3. One of the most prominent voices for women in crypto and NFTs, Randi is passionate about the unparalleled opportunities for financial success that Web3 can provide for women. Her fun, educational crypto videos on YouTube and Twitter have been viewed more than four million times.
In addition to being one of the largest NFT collectors of women-led projects, she founded HUG, a platform to support NFT creators and buyers, featuring a community curated discovery platform for NFTs (HUGhub), a growth accelerator for established NFT projects and artists (groupHUG) and an early stage creator program (hedgeHUG.) Through these initiatives, Randi and her team are currently working with more than twenty different crypto, NFT & metaverse related projects.
A Harvard graduate, Randi hosts a weekly business talk radio show, Randi Zuckerberg Means Business on SiriusXM, a weekly podcast, Crypto Cafe, and is the author of two best-selling business books, Dot Complicated and Pick Three. When she’s not trading jpegs, she can be found at the theater or doing her best to unplug at home with her husband and three children who are now almost as obsessed with crypto as she is.
In 2007, Randi had a front row seat to the launch of the iPhone in Silicon Valley and the necessity for every single business to immediately pivot or go extinct. She helped lead her team at Facebook successfully through that massive shift in consumer behavior, launching new products and programs that are now used by more than a billion people around the globe. She is here now, with over a decade of hindsight and analysis, to help guide you through these current tumultuous times. It has become clear that consumer behavior has again shifted abruptly, and meaningfully, creating an opportunity for businesses willing to take the leap. During this program, Randi will take you through some of the most substantial shifts in consumer behavior expected to happen over the next 12-18 months, and how to get ahead of them, rather than be caught off guard.
“Randi was wonderful! We were so happy to have her. She really shined during cocktail hour and made time to speak with people, which we really appreciated. We loved that she touched on her personal experience with our organization and the program. That was very special.”
“Thank you so much for the amazing presentation Randi gave yesterday. The team cannot stop buzzing about it. Everyone thought she was the best presentation of the entire conference. She are such an impressive person. Smart, engaging, funny, and talented. ”
“We loved Randi! It was a phenomenal time. Everyone was super impressed by her informational presentation. We all learned something new, and of course her singing was a scene stealer.”
