Ten years ago, Culture Creators founder and CEO Joi Brown set a table for the people the industry hadn’t yet quite noticed. Today, that table is one of the most consequential rooms in American culture. On Friday, June 26, Culture Creators will mark a decade of cultural leadership with the 10th Annual Leaders & Innovators Awards Brunch at The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. The event will bring together 400 of the most influential voices in entertainment, media, sports, fashion, business, and technology to honor the architects defining what comes next.

The milestone brunch, themed “The Future of Culture,” celebrates its ten-year run, which has reshaped how culture is recognized, resourced, and remembered. Widely known as “Culture’s Biggest Brunch,” the event has become a barometer for the executives, artists, athletes, and entrepreneurs moving industries forward — often years before the mainstream catches up. To date, Culture Creators has generated 12.2M press impressions, 10.4B audience reach, and 550+ media features, while delivering a 30% average lift in brand engagement for cultural partners.
