DJ JayLew: From Beats to Business, A Journey of Innovation and Impact

So I've been burned a lot because my mom always said, treat everyone how you want to be treated, which I still believe that to this day. But I've also realized as I've gotten older that not everyone deserves their time to begin with.

So I think what happens a lot of times, especially in how I've become, you know, the person that I am now, the man I am now, has been for me, honestly, trial and error in meeting people and offering value and seeing some people that didn't want it. And then other people who have, you know, the people I'm still working with today who have looked at an opportunity for them to grow.

Like I give you a great example. My business partner, Moji. We're the co-founder of the Data Global Hub, and we're putting on four different events currently. We have a billion-dollar company. I know it's going to be a billion-dollar company. We've been doing very, very well. Me and Moji, we connected at Forrest last year at 30 Under 30.

When I met him, he already had a business and I had my own business, but we instantly clicked because we saw that we could add value to each other's businesses. So it wasn't any ego. It was just, how can I help you? How can you help me? And then ultimately we came together and said, you know what, instead of us partnering, we need to just come together and co-found this company.

So now I'm in the data tech and AI space. And who would have thought that a guy coming from entertainment media would be in the data tech and AI space, which is the future? Because now it's funny how roles change and switch. Now the people in entertainment media who don't have any connection to data tech and AI, now all of a sudden everyone wants to be a part of data tech and AI now.

So now I'm a cool guy again. Because now I'm somebody who has access to something that most people now won't have access to. Now, I don't consider that inauthentic. I just consider it being in the right place at the right time. And that's one thing that I'm very, very good at. And a lot of people told me a long time ago, oh, you just take pictures with people. You don't really know these people.

And to a certain extent, that's true. But the other part that they didn't realize was that I knew I was going to see those people again. And every time I saw those people again, I would reference the time that I met them, and I would let them know, like, hey, this isn't the first time I met you, but I met you before here. This is us together. So it wasn't a flex.
