  • The Rise of the Creator Economy

    The Rise of the Creator Economy
    Sep 26 2024
    As traditional media struggles to keep pace, a new era of direct-to-audience content is redefining the landscape. Creators, not corporations, are now at the helm, reshaping how content is delivered and consumed. The time of waiting for the evening news broadcast or the morning paper is fading fast. Content now reaches audiences instantly, directly from the source to the consumer, bypassing the slow, antiquated channels that once dominated the media industry. And we shed more light on this with Murray Legg, Co-Founder Webfluential. Murray completed his Ph.D at 25 and joined Rand Merchant Bank on the "Class of" programme in 2009. He left to start Retroviral, an award-winning digital agency, and after that an influencer marketing platform called Webfluential. The business now has offices in South Africa, Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Croatia and the US. He designed a heart valve replacement for emerging market patients and holds a number of patents for that. He bought his first Bitcoin in 2013, and launched a project called PhotoChromic, allowing people to mint an NFT of their biometrically verified identity. He is an advisor to an international crypto hedge funds, runs his own investment fund in technology businesses, and consults to banks on their digital roadmaps.

    Understanding the Importance of a Will in Business
    Sep 23 2024
    Thinking about what happens in the event of your passing may feel like a morbid thought, but if you own a business, it’s an important consideration that should not be neglected. National Wills Week took place from 16 – 20 September and on the show, we speak to Bryan Nicol on “Understanding the Importance of a Will in Business” Bryan Nicol is a Certified Financial Planner® and owner of Freedom Financial Planning – one of South Africa's first flat-fee independent financial planning companies. Having experienced, first-hand, the shortcomings of product-focused financial advice, Bryan chose to follow a different path. As a lifestyle financial planner, he uses his skills and expertise to help clients identify and pursue their life goals and answer the question that keeps us all up at night: Will I have enough? His goal is to help people live the best lives they can with the money they have, starting now and continuing into retirement. Bryan is also a financial consultant to the digital wellbeing platform soSerene, which offers holistic well-being resources for companies.
