What if your next big business move wasn’t another client… but an IP?
On 30 January 2026, we’re summoning Kyle Ong (王伟忠)—filmmaker, podcaster, and co-founder of HANTU—as he shares how he built Ghost Maps, an award-winning horror IP with 22.5M+ reach and 110K combined followers across platforms.
He didn’t “go viral.” He built a moat—by owning his stories, his characters, and his rights.
This session is called “Don’t Shy, Ask Me” for a reason. You get to ask him anything from his humble start of IP creation to strategy for sustainable operation, even candid questions on revenue and cost.
If you’re a creative or freelancer tired of trading time for money, this is your blueprint.
Seats are limited. Spirits are not guaranteed—but insights are.
