Excitement is building as we prepare for the next Kingston BETA event. Scheduled for June 27, 2024, the event will offer a deep dive into the evolving world of digital culture and entertainment. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, entrepreneur, or just looking to network in a vibrant environment, this is an event not to be missed.
Digital Culture and Entertainment Panel
Our panel will explore the pulse of Jamaican digital culture with a focus on digital creators, ride-sharing apps, anime and gaming. The conversation will be moderated by Kadia Francis, with the session hosted by Kingston BETA founder Ingrid Riley. Notable panelists include:
Demetres Fairman – Personal Finance and Lifestyle Content Creator
Olivia Lindsay – Founder and CEO of 876 on the go
Ricardo Carter – President of Anime Confest
Glenn Henry, Founder of Sprite Wrench Studios
Panel Moderator: Kadia Francis – Founder, Digital Jamaica
Start-up Phase
Innovation is at the heart of Kingston BETA’s events and community, and the Startup Stage is where it all comes to life. Three technology entrepreneurs will pitch their early-stage ideas to a panel of judges, competing for a $300,000 prize and access to Kingston BETA’s network of mentors, experts, accelerators and investor resources to help bring their vision to life. This is a great opportunity to see the next big thing in tech before it hits the mainstream.
Sankofa Sessions Summer Tech Party Networking
To conclude the event, we’ll turn your networking time into a Summer Tech Party. We’ve partnered with DJ Iset Sankofa from Sankofa Sessions to fuel the night with high energy beats of AfroHouse, Amapiano and AfroBeat. This isn’t just a networking event; it’s a celebration. Come enjoy drinks, dance, mingle with like-minded people and take in the positive vibes heading into the summer holidays.
