We would like to extend an invitation to you for a fireside chat and happy hour with Mir Hwang, who is the CEO and founder of GigFinesse, a concierge booking platform that simplifies booking live entertainment for venues while helping "starving artists" find their next gig, bringing artists and venues together. Mir Hwang was a former touring musician, and founded GigFinesse while studying in NYU. He took advantage of every entrepreneurial opportunity available to them on campus, including participating in the NYU Entrepreneurs Challenge and taking home the top prize at NYU InnoVention. GigFinesse has secured $5 million in venture funding from investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, NJME Investments, and the NYU Innovation Venture Fund. Thousands of artists have used the platform, which booked $2.4 million in revenue in 2022. Mir was just recognized as a winner of Forbes 30 Under 30 for 2024.
