“The ‘rational’is how we arrive at the solution but the ‘narrative’is why we create it. So whether it’s solving cancer or building a jet plane or designing a beautiful gown for an event, the basis of creation is the same." – George Gottl – Chief Creative Officer - UXUS.
"We don’t want to create experiences for experience sake. Think of it as sustainability for your brain. You know… Give me great memories!" – Ari Peralta – CEO, Arigami
"I would drive from L.A. to Oakland, and I would think about all of the hotels that I passed on the way, just on the drive. And I was like, why can’t I have one? Once I started to believe that it was truly possible, there was nothing that was going to stop me from getting there." - Damon Lawrence, Founder & CEO, Homage Hospitality
