The Invite-Only Gathering Convenes a Cross-Section of the Global Nightlife Industry, Signaling a New Chapter for the Platform in the Americas
MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / April 14, 2026 / The first edition of Fun Business Days Miami set a strong tone for what this platform could become in the U.S., which was hosted by Fourvenues Founder and CEO Alberto Centeno.
Timed to Miami Music Week, the invite-only gathering brought together venue and festival operators, tech founders, and industry leaders for an evening of conversation grounded in the realities of the business, from how technology is being implemented on the ground to the role culture and community play in building brands that last.
The program featured two in-conversation panels, including "The Tech Stack That Runs Modern Venues," moderated by Shannon Herber (Wise River Consulting), with Alberto Centeno (Fourvenues), Thatcher Sammet (Laylo), Alaa Safa (LINEUP.ART), and Max Hammer (CrowdVolt). The evening continued with "Culture by Design: The American Blueprint," moderated by Megan Venzin, with perspectives from Vera Rees (Lion's Den), Jonathan Beltran (Cafe Grooves), and Avra Jain (The Vagabond Group).
Across both conversations, the focus stayed practical, how operators are building, scaling, and adapting in real time, while also addressing the broader cultural dynamics shaping the future of nightlife.
What stood out was the quality of exchange. Panels opened the dialogue, but it carried well beyond them, across the room, between peers, partners, and new collaborators.
The energy of the afternoon and into the evening was anchored by music from KSENYEAH (NYC Rave Girls), alongside sets from Eli Fola, creating a natural bridge between conversation and connection.
"This is exactly why we created Fun Business Days," said Alberto Centeno, CEO of Fourvenues. "To bring the industry together in a way that is practical, open, and forward-looking. Miami was the right place to begin this next chapter, and this first edition confirmed the appetite for it." With strong engagement throughout the afternoon and evening, and a room that stayed connected well beyond the formal program, the inaugural Miami edition established a clear foundation for future growth.
