Investor Relations and Fundraising Strategist Liana Zavo Brings “Shark Tank on Steroids” Roadshow Model to New York City and Global Markets

Following Successful Monaco Engagement Representing a Leading Oil and Gas Company
New York, USA
Liana Zavo, founder of ZavoVentures and ZavoMedia PR Group, has completed a successful investor roadshow in Monaco, where she represented an oil and gas company before an audience of international investors at the Hotel de Paris Monte Carlo. The engagement is her latest in a track record that now spans 12 countries, including Israel, with her next roadshow scheduled for Dubai in the fourth quarter. In New York City, Zavo hosts roadshows on a regular basis for micro-cap and small-cap companies.
Marie Antoinette Furtado, a natural resources expert, UN ambassador and fashion designer, said Zavo’s ability to bring people together stood out. “Meeting Liana Zavo in Monaco was extraordinary,” Furtado said. “She has the rare ‘it factor,’ the ability to connect investors, leaders and opportunities across the globe.” The Monaco roadshow was structured as a non-deal roadshow, meaning the company was not raising capital or soliciting investment during the engagement itself. Instead, the three days were built to introduce leadership directly to investors, strengthen relationships and build long-term credibility ahead of any future capital raise. Non-deal roadshows are a standard tool used by public companies to keep investors informed and engaged between formal offerings, and Zavo’s model applies the same curated, relationship-first approach that defines her broader roadshow strategy.
The Monaco and upcoming Dubai engagements are part of an investor roadshow model Zavo calls “Shark Tank on steroids,” which she has run for the past four years. The three-day format brings roughly 30 investors a day, including family offices, venture capital firms and strategic partners, into curated meetings and dinners with participating companies, creating close to 90 investor touchpoints in a single engagement.
A Model Built on Visibility Before the Ask
Zavo’s approach draws on her background in public relations. Through ZavoMedia PR Group, she has spent years positioning founders, executives, family offices and venture capital firms, work that revealed a consistent gap: companies with strong fundamentals and real capital plans, but little visibility outside their own networks.
“Companies spend enormous amounts of time preparing financial models and investor decks, but capital is still relationship-driven,” Zavo said. “If investors don’t know who you are, don’t understand your story or haven’t developed confidence in your leadership, the deck alone isn’t going to create that relationship.”
That belief shapes her framework: Visibility. Credibility. Capital. Visibility gets a company discovered. Credibility gives investors a reason to keep paying attention. Relationships create the opening for capital to follow.
Three Days, Ninety Conversations, One Story Under Pressure
Rather than filling a ballroom with hundreds of attendees, Zavo’s roadshow model favors curated access and repeated, meaningful conversation. Each of the three days is anchored by a tailored, curated investor dinner, giving executives a more intimate setting to build relationships with investors beyond the formal meetings and presentations. For management teams, the three days function as a live test of their investor narrative, surfacing which questions repeat, which parts of the story land and where the pitch needs more clarity.
“By the third day, you’re not telling the story the same way you told it on day one,” Zavo said. “You’re hearing investors, understanding their concerns and learning what resonates. That feedback can be incredibly valuable.”
Jim Bark, a private investor and former M&A banker who attended one of Zavo’s investor dinners, said her strength lies in bringing the right people into the room.
“Liana is super talented at community building. She brings companies together with investors in a way that just works,” Bark said. “She has a great eye, and she’s a master connector and storyteller.”
Where PR and IR Converge
Zavo’s model brings public relations and investor relations together under one strategy, rather than treating them as separate functions. Before and around each roadshow, ZavoMedia PR Group builds visibility for the company and its leadership, so that by the time investors sit down at the table, they are already meeting a name they recognize.
“Public relations tells the market why you matter. Investor relations explains why the business matters as an opportunity,” Zavo said. “When those two stories are aligned, management walks into investor conversations from a much stronger position.”
Through ZavoVentures, Zavo also works directly with family offices and venture capital organizations, giving her insight into both sides of the table: what investors need to evaluate an opportunity quickly, and what companies need to reach the right investors for their stage, sector and capital requirements.
A Global Model, Four Years in the Making
Over the past four years, Zavo has built a track record that now spans 12 countries, including Israel and an upcoming Dubai engagement in the fourth quarter. Her proven track record has positioned her as Wall Street’s Roadshow Strategist, the go-to architect behind investor experiences built to convert attention into relationships. Much of that work centers on micro-cap and small-cap public companies, which often carry strong fundamentals but struggle to get in front of the right investors. Her focus remains the same wherever she works: building the visibility and credibility that make an investor room worth walking into.
“I’m not interested in simply putting another pitch event on the calendar,” Zavo said. “I want to create an experience where companies have three days to be seen, heard and challenged by investors, and where we surround those conversations with the visibility and credibility necessary to make people pay attention.”

Tinuiti Unveils Bliss Point MCP Server, Pioneering Open Measurement Access for AI Agents
New York, USAIn an industry built on walled gardens, Bliss Point MCP Server opens Tinuiti’s decision-grade media intelligence to any AI agent a brand chooses — no closed ecosystem required.
In an industry built on walled gardens, Bliss Point MCP Server opens Tinuiti's decision-grade media intelligence to any AI agent a brand chooses — no closed ecosystem required.
New York, USA
Today, Tinuiti, a leading independent media agency, announced the launch of the Bliss Point Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, becoming one of the first agencies to open its proprietary measurement layer directly to AI agents. Powered by the Bliss Point Marketing Operating System—Tinuiti’s proprietary intelligence engine that unifies audience, creative, media, and measurement—the new connection gives marketers governed access to clean, cross-channel media performance and measurement intelligence through compatible AI agents and enterprise AI environments.
Unlike traditional walled-garden platforms that restrict integration, the Bliss Point MCP Server is built for total interoperability—collaborating directly with a marketer’s chosen AI applications, external tech partners, and existing enterprise infrastructure.
The Bliss Point MCP Server makes core Bliss Point resources—clean, normalized media data, measurement signals, and select third-party data—available through compatible versions of ChatGPT, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, and clients’ own agents or business intelligence environments, subject to client permissions and configuration. Rather than asking an agent to reconcile fragmented platform reports, the Bliss Point MCP Server gives it a single, already-taxonomized view of performance to reason over.
“We believe two things fundamentally. One, an AI agent is only as smart as the context, data, and guardrails powering it, and two, clients should be able to choose how they use their own data—not have that choice made for them by whichever system happens to hold it. That’s what Bliss Point MCP means in practice: a client’s own clean, governed data, working inside whatever agent or LLM they choose. For clients, that means faster, more confident decisions built on a foundation they actually trust. As an independent agency, we can move fast and work with the technology our clients choose,” said Abbey Klaassen, Chief Executive Officer, Tinuiti.
Built on the open Model Context Protocol standard, the new connection allows brands to query approved Bliss Point data and build customized workflows, giving a brand’s preferred agents and tools access to the most powerful datasets and context. By taking on the heavy lifting of extracting, organizing, and unifying fragmented channel data in one place, Tinuiti’s Bliss Point MCP Server gives a brand’s AI tools immediate access to decision-grade intelligence, empowering teams to focus on strategic execution from day one.
Tinuiti’s pioneering agency MCP Server comes as platforms such as Google, Meta, TikTok and Amazon have each introduced MCP connections that give marketers and developers agent-based access to their respective platforms. By connecting its proprietary measurement intelligence to AI agents through an MCP, Tinuiti gives clients an independent intelligence layer across channels, bringing together normalized media data, measurement signals, modeling outputs, and approved third-party data in a consistent, governed format.
With the Bliss Point MCP Server, marketers can:
- Connect media and business data. Bring approved media intelligence into a brand’s AI or business intelligence environment and combine it with sales, inventory, or CRM data for cross-functional analysis.
- Get answers on demand. Ask how yesterday’s performance compared with plan and receive an answer based on clean, taxonomized data, without waiting for a scheduled report or response.
- Move faster during peak periods. Review pacing and prior-day results during high-volume periods, including the holiday shopping season, using the same governed data foundation available to the broader team.
- Build governed workflows. Develop agents and skills, including weekly performance narratives or anomaly alerts, with Bliss Point as the underlying intelligence layer.
Market interest in an open measurement layer is already translating into active adoption among major brands. Leading advertisers within Tinuiti’s client roster, like e.l.f., are implementing the Bliss Point MCP Server to connect their enterprise LLMs and custom AI agents directly to the agency’s decision-grade data. By moving early, these brands are establishing unified AI governance models that integrate cross-channel media performance straight into their internal business intelligence stacks—setting the operational standard for how modern marketing organizations will leverage AI agents moving forward.
“e.l.f.’s ethos commits us to connecting communities and actively listening to the signals they give. An integrated platform like Tinuiti’s MCP—for which we were eager to be alpha testers—should allow us to see the big picture across our media and business data with collective analysis through a governed workflow. We are always looking for new pathways to meet our community where they are,” said Patrick O’Keefe, Chief Integrated Marketing Officer, e.l.f. Brands.
Tinuiti built the Bliss Point MCP Server under its Agentic Deference principles, which call for approved data access, clearly defined business objectives, human accountability and governance appropriate to each use case. Building directly on this MCP foundation, Tinuiti is rolling out next-generation Dashboarding and Data Analysis Agents, designed to provide on-demand, customized answers through Bliss Point.

The launch follows rapid enterprise growth for Tinuiti, driven by a 66% increase in average deal size over two years and major Agency of Record wins including: Carter’s, Inc., Full-Funnel Agency of Record; Wolverine World Wide, Inc. (Merrell®, Saucony®, Chaco®, Wolverine®, and Cat® Footwear), Media Agency of Record; Serta Simmons Bedding, Digital Agency of Record; and Allies of Skin, Media Agency of Record.
Tinuiti has also made significant investments in senior leadership throughout 2026 to support its continued growth. Abbey Klaassen joined Tinuiti as CEO in June, with Bryan Wiener appointed Chairman of the Board. Most recently, Tinuiti welcomed Wes Harris as Global Chief Operating Officer, formalizing the COO role on its executive leadership team to connect client delivery, product, technology, and AI around the agency’s biggest growth opportunities.

BMA Conventions Reveals Dallas as Host City for 2027 Smart Manufacturing & AI Automation Conference
DALLAS, TexasThe two-day executive forum will bring manufacturing leaders, plant executives and technology innovators together to explore practical applications of AI, automation, robotics and connected manufacturing.
The two-day executive forum will bring manufacturing leaders, plant executives and technology innovators together to explore practical applications of AI, automation, robotics and connected manufacturing.
DALLAS, Texas
BMA Conventions will bring the Smart Manufacturing & AI Automation Convention 2027 to Dallas, Texas, from Feb 23, 2027 to Feb 25, 2027, creating a focused environment for manufacturing leaders to examine how artificial intelligence, automation and connected technologies are moving from experimentation into day-to-day industrial operations.
The three-day convention will take place at the DoubleTree by Hilton Dallas Market Center and will connect senior professionals across manufacturing operations, engineering, plant leadership, maintenance, digital transformation and industrial technology.
As manufacturers work to improve productivity, reduce unplanned downtime, strengthen operational resilience and modernize production environments, technologies such as AI, robotics, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), predictive analytics and intelligent automation are becoming increasingly important to plant strategy.
The Smart Manufacturing & AI Automation Convention 2027 is designed around those practical challenges.
Rather than concentrating only on emerging technology, discussions will explore how manufacturers can apply new systems to measurable operational priorities including production performance, asset reliability, quality, maintenance, workforce development and plant-wide visibility.
Key areas of discussion will include:
- AI-powered production and intelligent process control
- Predictive maintenance and asset reliability
- Advanced robotics, cobots and autonomous production
- IIoT, edge technologies and connected factory systems
- MES, production analytics and real-time plant visibility
- Operational excellence and continuous improvement
- Industrial cybersecurity and operational resilience
- Supply chain visibility and business continuity
- Human-machine collaboration and workforce transformation
- Strategies for scaling automation across manufacturing operations
The convention will combine industry expert talks, executive panels, case studies, leadership discussions, networking and scheduled 1-on-1 meetings, creating opportunities for manufacturing decision-makers and selected technology providers to engage in more focused conversations.
From Technology Pilots to Operational Results
Artificial intelligence has quickly become one of the most discussed technologies in manufacturing. The next challenge for industrial organizations is determining where AI can generate practical value.
Predictive maintenance, automated quality inspection, production optimization, equipment monitoring and intelligent decision support are among the areas where manufacturers are increasingly exploring AI-driven approaches.
The Dallas convention will examine these applications alongside the infrastructure, data, workforce and operational strategies required to implement them effectively.
Connected manufacturing will also be central to the program.
By combining industrial equipment, sensors, software platforms, analytics and real-time operational data, manufacturers are gaining greater visibility into factory performance and identifying opportunities to respond to problems earlier.
Creating More Focused Industry Conversations
The Smart Manufacturing & AI Automation Convention is structured as a focused executive forum rather than a large-scale traditional trade show.
The format is designed to create repeated opportunities for meaningful conversations between manufacturing leaders and technology providers through conference sessions, networking periods and dedicated 1-on-1 meetings.
Day One will begin with exhibitor setup and networking activities, followed by a concentrated conference program on Day Two. Day Three will continue with leadership discussions, case studies and technology sessions before moving into dedicated 1-on-1 meetings.
Dallas at the Center of the Conversation
Hosting the convention in Dallas places the event within one of the country’s important industrial and technology markets and provides access to manufacturing organizations operating throughout Texas and the wider United States.
BMA Conventions is developing the event for executives, plant managers, engineering leaders, operations professionals, maintenance teams, digital transformation leaders and technology decision-makers responsible for improving manufacturing performance.
BMA Conventions Quote
“Manufacturers are no longer discussing AI and automation only as technologies of the future. The conversation is increasingly about where these technologies can solve real operational problems today. Our goal with the Smart Manufacturing & AI Automation Convention is to create a focused environment where industry leaders can exchange practical experiences, evaluate solutions and build relationships that can support the next stage of industrial transformation.”
