Nikki Sanz is the founder and CEO of Giggs, the professional career platform revolutionizing hiring in the live event industry. Recognized on Forbes’ 30 Under 30 North America 2024, Nikki created Giggs to address the inefficiencies she experienced firsthand as a gigging professional working with Live Nation, CMA Fest, and on tour with artists like Eric Church and George Strait.
Since its launch less than a year ago, Giggs has grown to over 30,000 professionals and 1,500 companies, filling over 1000 jobs across the live events space. Under Nikki’s leadership, the company has raised $1.4M from 35 investors, secured a deal with Marc Randolph (Netflix co-founder) on Entrepreneur’s Elevator Pitch TV Show, and is already expanding into other entertainment sectors like sports, TV/film, corporate events, and theater.
Through Giggs, Nikki is committed to professionalizing and streamlining the gigging world while fostering a diverse and inclusive community for live event professionals worldwide.
