This is the Gary V. Audio Experience.

Because we're gonna be legends

From the game they're a treasure

For what do you think?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.

Welcome to VoiceCon.

I'm extremely excited about this.

When I think about what the team has done to get us here

I'm just very proud.

And so obviously when Vayner Media and VaynerX in general decided to start putting on events in 2018

We thought a lot about the IP or the places we wanted to play.

And so before I go into this, I just want to give a huge shout out to Kim and Emma and the rest of the Vayner Experience team.

And everybody at Vayner, I'd love for you to clap it up for them.

You know, one of the things that's interesting about having an event be your event versus what I normally do

Which is fly in and speak and give a keynote is being a host is definitely different than being a guest or a special guest.

And so I gave a lot of thought to the rest of the lineup.

As this was being built out, I was just overwhelmed and impressed with who were able to get lined up for this event.

And so to try to reverse engineer why you're here and think about the value that I can bring in the lineup, I think that respecting your audience is always the most important part to create success.

As a matter of fact, probably as a quick side note, the most interesting thing for me in the voice space is that we have not established kind of the UI in the UX and the interface of how we're going to interact with these things as they become dramatically more sophisticated.

That comes along with empathy and respect for the end user.
