What you likely need
You're one of the most recognized founders alive, but your post-IPO chapter — as an angel, a cross-border operator, and a policy voice — is still largely invisible. Festival events that put you in front of early-stage founders who need your specific credibility (marketplace trust, YC lore, Asia expansion) and co-investors who want access to your deal flow will do the most work. The highest-leverage moments are small, high-trust rooms where your operator depth is the rarest thing in the room.
