Greenlighting A New Generation of Storytellers

Recorded on September 17, 2020.
Legendary producer Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, one of the world’s most successful actors, directors and producers has created some of the most iconic films and television shows of the last 35 years (Apollo 13, Arrested Development, and The Da Vinci Code to name a few). But entertainment — like tech — is all about disruption. So, to tap into how it will be created and delivered in the future, the pair have teamed up with entrepreneur Tyler Mitchell to launch Imagine Impact, a Silicon Valley-style accelerator where promising writers connect with mentors to build their stories and help them take to market. Impact signed a deal in June with Netflix to expand that pipeline, so come hear about what else they have planned, and what the three of them think about the future of features.
