To the Brand Storytelling Community,
For over a decade, Brand Storytelling has stood for a singular, powerful belief: that stories are the most essential currency of human connection. You have built a sanctuary for this belief—from the screening rooms of Park City to the summer retreats at Elevate—proving that when brands stop interrupting and start entertaining, they don’t just capture attention, they capture hearts.
Today, it is my distinct privilege to announce that Brand Storytelling has joined the Aivanta family.
I approach this acquisition with a deep sense of responsibility. I have long admired how this community has shifted the industry standard, moving brand-funded content from the fringe to the forefront. My intention is not to change the soul of what you have built, but to give it new wings.
At Aivanta, we believe we are on the cusp of another massive shift in media—one empowered by a new generation of technology and artificial intelligence. But technology without a story is just code. Our vision is to marry the “human heart” of storytelling that you champion with the limitless possibilities of an AI-first future.
We intend to take this platform to new heights—expanding our events, deepening our insights, and providing you with the tools to tell stories that were previously impossible. We are here to champion you, the creators and visionaries, as we navigate this exciting new era together.
The story of this industry is just getting started. I can’t wait to write the next chapter with you.
With gratitude and excitement,
Donnovan Andrews Founder & CEO, Aivanta
