About this Event

ABOUT ANTONIO PAGANO

With over 25 years of experience spanning education, professional sports, legal services, and consumer products, I specialize in transforming ideas into strategic growth. As a consultant for Vyvo/vGeneration and founder of Libertaria, I help organizations harness AI, marketing automation, blockchain, Bitcoin, crypto assets, and web3 to design innovative direct-to-consumer strategies that stay ahead of the curve.

I am passionate about Bitcoin as more than just a currency—it’s a tool for empowering individuals, protecting freedoms, and building a more equitable world. This vision drives my book Bitcoin: The Money Revolution, where I explore how decentralized technologies can catalyze global change.

I am also the author of Hi, AI! How Human Ingenuity and Artificial Intelligence Are Transforming the Marketing Universe, co-created with my fictional AI collaborator, Claudio GPT. Claudio is not a ghostwriter but a co-creator—bringing humor, perspective, and digital precision into a collaborative process that proves the future of innovation lies in human–AI partnership.

In 2011, I wrote Marketing Ovale, the first book in the world dedicated to rugby marketing. Whether it’s advocating for Bitcoin adoption, designing AI-powered marketing ecosystems, or blending human creativity with machine intelligence, my mission is to challenge the status quo and build a future where technology and human values grow together.
