Jellysmack to Take the Stage at VidCon Baltimore with Top Creator Hyram Yarbro

Updated September 21, 2023

With VidCon Mexico and Anaheim in our rearview, we now have our sights set on the next big event: VidCon Baltimore. As the top creator convention makes its way to a brand new city September 28 through October 1, Jellysmack will be there to kick it all off with a panel you won’t want to miss.

Skincare expert, entrepreneur, and Jellysmack creator partner Hyram Yarbro will be taking the Industry Track Mainstage with our very own Vice President of Corporate Development, Lauren Schnipper, and Fortune Tech Reporter, Alexandra Sternlicht, on Friday, September 29 at 2:40 p.m. The topic? Creator entrepreneurship. They’ll be diving into one of the main dilemmas that digital stars face today: should content creators stick to their artistic roots or strike into the cutthroat business world? Join them as they answer some of the most crucial questions creators should ask before venturing into new businesses and product launches.

As someone who has successfully transformed his digital brand into a tangible business, Hyram will share first hand insights into his entrepreneurial journey with Selfless by Hyram, as well as the ups and downs he’s experienced as a business owner. Whether you’re a creator that’s looking to expand or a brand looking to collaborate on a creator-led product, this panel belongs on your VidCon Baltimore schedule. Reminder: you’ll need an Industry Track badge to attend.

While VidCon Anaheim may have come and gone, lucky for us (and for you) there’s more to look forward to. VidCon Mexico 2023 is taking over Mexico City once again August 11-13 at the iconic Centro Citibanamex. Creators and companies from across the continent will come together to celebrate what’s new and next in the world of digital video, and that includes Jellysmack.

But that’s not all—right on the heels of VidCon Mexico is the first-ever VidCon Baltimore. The inaugural East Coast creator convention will be happening September 28-October 1 at the Baltimore Convention Center. With the industry growing at a rapid pace, and more and more creatives setting their sights on becoming digital entrepreneurs, it’s only fitting that the world’s biggest creator event also spreads its wings. Jellysmack will also be in Baltimore to commemorate the occasion and talk all-things video.

Next Stop, Mexico City

If you’re looking to attend VidCon Mexico, there are two tracks you can choose from: the Community Track, which is where creators and their biggest fans can connect, and the Industry Track, which is where platforms, brands, and creators discuss industry trends, innovative tech advancements, and more. Both tracks are filled with insightful panels that are guaranteed to spark inspiration, so you really can’t go wrong.

Last year, Jellysmackers took to the stage for a variety of panels at VidCon Mexico, discussing content strategy and female entrepreneurship, among other of-the-moment topics. This year, we’re returning to the Industry Track with a can’t-miss conversation surrounding one of ways Jellysmack helps creators Go Bigger: multi-platform distribution. 

Top fashion, beauty, and lifestyle creator, Claudipia, who has amassed 15 million followers across YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok alone, will be joining Jellysmack’s Director of Creator Partnerships, Yaheli Aguliera, for a panel on Friday, August 11 at 4:00 p.m. They’ll be discussing how creators can get the most value out of their content by expanding onto new social platforms. As a Jellysmack creator partner, Claudipia will share first hand how her cross-platform presence has helped her build a global audience and furthered her creator career. Creators of all sizes can benefit from this insightful conversation, so make sure to add it to your VidCon agenda.

While you’re there, make sure you also catch horror storyteller and Jellysmack creator partner, Jason Thores, who will be speaking on two panels Sunday, August 13. From content tips to combating burnout, VidCon Mexico is ready to deliver all the inspiration you need to Go Bigger.

Let’s Talk Baltimore

If you can’t make the trip to VidCon Mexico, don’t fret—Baltimore is up next. VidCon Baltimore offers the same two Community and Industry Track badge options, but unlike Mexico, there’s also an option to experience it all online with VidCon Demand. This digital subscription allows you to stream every panel from both Baltimore tracks anywhere in the world, making it a great choice for those who aren’t able to attend IRL.  

As with Anaheim and Mexico, Jellysmack will also be joining the VidCon-versation in Baltimore. Panel details are still in the works, so keep your eyes on Creator Post for updates on where, when, and how you can catch us on stage.

If you’re looking for even more reasons to attend VidCon Baltimore, TikTok star and Jellysmack creator partner, SidneyRaz, was named one of this year’s Featured Creators. His panel at VidCon Anaheim with fellow TikToker and Jellysmack partner, Adam Rose, was a hit among aspiring creators. From finding his niche to successfully securing brand deals, his story is one you definitely don’t want to miss.

Jellysmack is thrilled to be a part of this year’s VidCon lineup in Baltimore and Mexico. If you’re interested in meeting a Jellysmack team member at one of these upcoming events to learn more about how we can help you Go Bigger, you can email vidcon@jellysmack.com. We hope to see you there!
