Raid The Fridge: CONTENT

Netflix Asia VP for Business Development Tony Zameczkowski will take the stage with Kickstart president Minette Navarrete in a fireside chat at Raid The Fridge this month!

The fireside chat will run from 7:00 PM until 7:45 PM so please register early so you won't miss it. Doors are open to registered guests beginning 5:30 PM.

Why Attend?
With Netflix currently listed in the top 10 largest internet companies in the world with 130 million members in over 190 countries, certainly, you ask yourself --- how are they winning in the “attention economy” as a leading internet TV platform?

It’s going to be an exciting conversation around global expansion, opportunities in Asia, partnerships for growth, and even company culture.

And yes, don't forget to help us empty our fridge: make new friends, reconnect with old friends, and swap #startupPH stories over beers.

Your Fridgemaster,

PIA BERNAL | Kickstart Community Manager
