The conversation will explore Spiegel’s journey in developing Snapchat as an alternative to traditional social media and will cover Spiegel’s and Kassan’s perspectives on building brands and businesses that people love.
“Snapchat is the best way to communicate with friends and family,” said Spiegel. “It’s real, fun and fast. We’ve grown to reach more than 400 million people daily because Snapchat makes people happy. People are tired of the social media popularity contest.”
As the home for the advertising, entertainment and content community at CES in Las Vegas, C Space is where the world’s leading brands, advertisers, media platforms and content creators meet to make deals and showcase tech shaping the industry.

“Snap is fundamentally a culture-making business and a master in brand love. They know what their consumers want tomorrow, and it shows in their technology and their advertising products,” said Kassan. “At MediaLink, we’re more focused than ever on the power that culture wields for brand growth and technological innovation. I’m thrilled to share the stage with Evan and Julia to dig into this topic.”
Immediately following the fireside chat, Kassan will also lead a panel conversation on the topic of brand loyalty with Allegra Krishnan, Vice President and Chief Loyalty & Engagement Officer, McDonald’s; Lynn Teo, Chief Marketing Officer, Northwestern Mutual; and Dara Treseder, Chief Marketing Officer, Autodesk.
