In this extensive conversation with Ian Utile topics revolve around his family's historical roots, the evolution and impact of NFTs, and the importance of supporting digital arts. 

Ian Utile believes that humanity is thriving in new ways because of technologies like NLP and NFTs. As a tech entrepreneur in Silicon Valley for 20+ years, he and his teams have launched seven companies together. One of their start-ups, Kukui, was acquired by a PE firm in 2019 after exceeding $10M ARR bootstrapped. Because of their 3,943% growth rate, Kukui was ranked by the Inc. 5000 as the #1 fastest growing private company in San Jose. Ian’s ancestor, José Joaquin Moraga, founded the City of San Jose in 1777. This unique heritage is a great inspiration to Ian. Today, he’s focused on co-producing events like NFT.NYC as well as creating wealth for content creators and their communities with attn.live’s NLP/NFT “Sonic Streaming” platform. Ian lives in Santa Cruz, CA inside a treehouse with his two sons (Malakye 12, Kenton 9). Connect with Ian directly on all social media sites @ianutile or @attnlive.
