NET Critical Conversations: Pivoting Live Events Production to Grow A Company During Covid



FNTECH CEO Jeremy Muir began his career as an audio engineer and quickly moved to technical director, project manager and executive producer of live events. In 1996 he co-founded live events production company FNTECH which has been producing high-profile, multi-million-dollar live, in-person, events across the globe – and, during the past year, events designed for the pandemic era. Jeremy joins Critical Conversations host Mark Chiolis to talk about two key case studies of virtual events and what the future of a hybrid events environment looks like as we move forward.
