(Atlanta, GA | Hybrid | On-Site Required for Key Events)

About MODEx Studio

MODEx Studio is where events become content, and content becomes commerce.

With cinematic staging, multi-camera broadcast capability, and massive LED walls, MODEx transforms live experiences into storytelling that sells.

Now, we're building the next chapter:
MODEx Originals
— a new division of MODEx-owned summits, symposiums, and cultural productions across
business, tech, real estate, media, and virtual production.
Each Original bridges these industries through
immersive, story-driven environments
— built as a
cinematic, episodic series
designed to evolve conversations and turn ideas into commerce.

We're also developing
MODEx Live
, our commerce-focused broadcast platform for live product launches and brand storytelling — filmed and streamed directly from MODEx's cinematic stage in Atlanta.

Together, these initiatives form the foundation for
MODEx's next evolution
— a creative ecosystem designed to merge content, commerce, and community at scale.
