About David Isaacs

I’m a media and technology entrepreneur with 20+ years of experience in creating, marketing, and monetizing innovative content and platforms across multiple channels and formats. Currently, I\'m co-founder and CEO of WiVu, a group booking application for underutilized private screening, dining and party rooms (a marketplace at the intersections of social x experiential x content).I also serve as the Advisory Board Chairman for the American 7s Football League, a startup revolutionizing the sport of football with its no-helmets, no-pads, full-contact format. Additionally, I advise companies including other emerging sports, content creators, applied neurotech, AI video applications and other media production and distribution. Some of my past achievements include co-founding The Ultimate Fighting Championship (NYSE: TKO), building the nation\'s largest college TV network, executive producing the world\'s first giant robot battle and creating immersive live events for The Walking Dead. I\'m passionate about developing new ways to entertain audiences - and cultivate Fandom - via unique content and/or distribution powered by cutting-edge technology and compelling storytelling.
