SUMMARY:More Than Content: How Experiences\, Collaborations & Influencers Build Brands That Last
DESCRIPTION:Be ready to interact with featured speaker\, Sean Dupiano\, and your fellow participants. \nPlease arrive at 11:30 am.  \nEat. Mingle. Make new friends. \n*************** \nEvent Description in the words of our event leader\, Sean Dupiano: \nI run Fluff Studio\, a social media agency built on digital strategy—but the more I’ve scaled\, the clearer it’s become: your brand isn’t just what you post\, it’s how people experience you in real life. AI can optimize content\, but it can’t replace human connection—people remember conversations\, moments\, and the way a brand made them feel. \nFrom launching Kape Coffee to hosting influencer activations\, I’ve seen how in-person experiences turn followers into advocates. The strongest brands aren’t just seen online—they create real-world moments that get shared and remembered. This workshop is about bridging the gap between digital influence and real-world impact to build a brand that lasts. \n*************** \nSean Dupiano is building Fluff Studio\, a media company\, which just opened its newest 3\,000+ sq. ft. retail/studio space. \nOn weekends\, Sean swaps cameras for coffee beans at Kape Coffee\, a pop-up his company hosts at Coppa Gelato\, curating flavors from across the world\, blending travel\, culture\, and caffeine into something tangible\, something you can taste. \nSeven years in the military taught Sean discipline\, adaptability\, and how to lead under pressure. Sean co-founded Fluff Studio and Kape Coffee to figure things out for himself—to learn by doing\, failing\, iterating. Along the way\, he’s met Colombian coffee growers with stories as rich as their beans\, built partnerships that crossed industries and continents\, and worked with executives on the nuances of brand positioning. \nMore than anything\, Sean has learned that the best ideas don’t just live on a screen. They live in rooms\, in conversations\, in the space between strangers who might not stay strangers for long. Sean is always eager talk about how to make that happen. \n*************** \nLike all TIGER Events\, this talk is FREE. \nTimeline: \n11:30 am – Lunch / Socializing \n11:50 am – Introduce yourself to our crowd (your “15 Seconds of Fame”) \n12:05 pm – Hand-off to Sean \n1:00 pm – Wrap / More Socializing \n\n\n\n\n                \n                        Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Email*\n                            \n                        Company*Consent to Use My Image & Voice*By registering for & participating in this event\, I am consenting to the recording of my image and/or voice.
