BURNING MAN MEETS TED

SPEAKER • ENTREPRENEUR • FUTURIST • CAUSE ARTIST

Your audience came for inspiration. Instead, too many stages serve karaoke speakers and
walking advertorials disguised as thought leaders. Sponsors buy speaking slots.
Professionals hear “no budget.” Tickets sold. Stage sold. Audience sold short.

Igor gives your audience the full set: imagination, inspiration, education, motivation, and action. The energy of a rock concert. Independent foresight with receipts. A futurist with 5 exits who invested, won, and lost in the markets he talks about.
