One Week Out: The LA Creator Social and What's Coming at ICW 2026

Hey {{first name | friend}},

Quick one this week — but both items are worth your attention.

If you're in LA, you have about a week to grab one of the last spots at the Game On social. And if you're interested in where the economy is heading as an investment category, GigaStar's own Scott Kitun has two sessions at Investment Crowdfunding Week this month that are genuinely worth your time.

Let's get into it. 👇

Game On: Social with GigaStar × Algebra

The Game On social is one week away — and spots are going fast. As of now, the event is nearly 70% full.

GigaStar and Algebra are bringing LA s together for a sports-themed night at All Seasons Brewing Company on Thursday, April 16 from 8–11pm PT. Open bar, free tacos from Chicas Tacos, and a skee-ball competition with a prize on the line. It's a casual night built for us to connect in person — no agenda, just good people.

If you've been thinking about going, now's the time.

GigaStar Chief Business Officer Scott Kitun has two sessions at Investment Crowdfunding Week this month — one on the emergence of revenue as an investable asset class, and one on the collectibles and alternative investing boom. Both are free to attend.

April 13, 2pm ET — As an Asset Class: Why Now, Why It Works A fireside conversation with Brian Belley, CTO of Kingscrowd, on revenue as a genuine yield-bearing investment category. YouTube alone paid out $30B+ to s in a recent three-year stretch — these are real, recurring cash flows, not speculative bets.

April 15, 2pm ET — Beyond Stocks: Collectibles, Sports & the New Alternative Investing: Scott joins Darren Rovell and allocator Eitan Charnoff for a conversation on what's driving valuations in sports cards, memorabilia, and media rights — and where sophisticated money is flowing in the alternatives space.

Bringing s and Investors Together Since 2022.
