Greta McAnany I'm a VC backed entrepreneur +
empath with media roots who believes innovation should serve our
most human needs- I think mental health is the greatest challenge
of our generation and the most promising space to build is the
intersection of technology and our well-beingI've spent the last
10 years working at the intersection of media, wellness and tech
with a youth focus. Right now I'm building toward a future with
more humane tech through my company Blue Fever: an AI mental
health guide peer well-being community for Gen Z/Alpha.


I began my career in Hollywood by starting my own production
company that produced award-winning films released on major
streaming platforms like Netflix/Amazon and in theaters. I
brought these films from inception to production &
distribution. As a filmmaker, I was a recipient of film grants
from Morgan Freeman’ Rock River Foundation, Chicken & Egg
Pictures and the prestigious Thornton Foundation. I then made the
move into Tech because I saw how media would be dependent on
technology for scale and distribution AND how it would impact our
well-being.


I’ve spent the past couple years building my own startup Blue
Fever that has supported over half a million young people through
millions of life moments . I have become a Gen Z expert + thought
leader who advises companies in the youth digital wellness space.
I've been featured in Techcrunch, Forbes, Masters of Scale
podcast and presented at Google, SXSW, Out Web Fest, Silicon
Beach Fest and various universities. I spend my (professional)
time 1) thinking about the future of digital identity and how
platforms create and maintain trust online 2)building solutions
for this generation's well-being needs that create both social
and financial value 3)learning about all the above and how to be
a better and more effective leader and coach.
