Thousand Faces is an investment platform empowering female founders aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by democratizing access to capital for impact-driven ventures.
In December 2023, Thousand Faces partnered with WeCare Impact and Confusion&Joy to host a dynamic five-hour activation at Art Basel Miami.
Held at the Kimpton Surfcomber Hotel during the “Art of Wellness” festival, the event spotlighted female entrepreneurship through curated digital art, immersive experiences, and thought-provoking discussions—showcasing the intersection of creativity, innovation, and social progress.
Art Basel Miami’s high-profile, fast-paced environment made it challenging for Thousand Faces to capture attention and make a lasting impact. With numerous activations competing for visibility, standing out required a strategic and immersive approach.
As its U.S. debut, the event was a critical opportunity to build brand awareness, forge connections with female founders, investors, and artists, and engage a diverse audience—not just during the activation, but as a catalyst for ongoing support and collaboration.
To ensure Thousand Faces stood out at Art Basel Miami, WeCare Impact and Confusion&Joy designed a strategic, immersive activation that blended art, technology, and storytelling to amplify its mission and engage key stakeholders.
