Matt Fannon’s Summary

I have managed and operated several different ventures. My business background has provided me with skills in business management, business finance, real estate acquisition and disposition, strategic targeting, deal structuring, contract negotiation, marketing and sales as well as entertainment technology and media. I have served on multiple boards and served in executive level positions throughout my career.

I founded Trancend, LLC in the late 1990s and was executive producer of a host of special events, indoor concerts, nightclub events, and large outdoor music festivals through the early 2000s. Most notably, Trancend produced and co-produced three outdoor “multi-cultural” art and music festivals in the South Eastern United States where I worked with multiple Grammy award winning musical performers, cirque performance artists, and internationally acclaimed traditional artists. I oversaw all promotional and marketing of the events with successful combined attendance of over 100,000 patrons.

Most recently, I founded Vortex Immersion Media with my partner and CTO, Ed Lantz. Vortex Immersion Media (VIM) delivers visionary immersive entertainment venues and related products and services. With decades of experience in immersive art and entertainment technologies, an extensive advisory network, and worldwide relationships with leading media and special effects professionals, VIM is uniquely positioned to usher in the next generation of highly compelling group interactive attractions. VIM clients include leading casino resorts, theme parks, nightclubs, lounges, urban developers and corporate marketing, events and tradeshow planners.
