NVIDIA x Audacity - Generative Media Mixer
Generative media has a hype problem. Most panels celebrate the technology. This one won't.
Audacity VC and NVIDIA Inception program are getting founders, lab leaders, and the enterprises actually deploying this technology into one room to answer the questions nobody wants to say out loud - is generative media actually a good business? Who is making money and who isn't? And when the dust settles, who wins: the labs building the models, the startups going vertical, or the platforms that own distribution?
To make this happen, we are bringing YC alumni, CMU alumni, and the CEO of India's most iconic film studio into the same conversation.
For founders and builders: NVIDIA Inception will fast-track your application if you attend. Get approved and you unlock cloud credits, hardware and software at rebated rates, and a dedicated onboarding session — all claimable directly from the Inception portal.
