When Emi was young and with no money, he saw the potential of hosting events when there were tons of people in line waiting to pay to get in. From there, he decided to throw his own parties which became successful and the rest is history.
Emi told us about his first events, going bankrupt 4 times, the ethos behind his brand and venues, the future of Wharf Miami, the grand opening of Club Space, bringing back the iconic John Martin's, and the correct way to pitch investors.
Enjoy!
