- Commit to innovation and progress. Sam's ethos is not to emulate others blindly but to drive change and advance the dialogue in ticketing.

"Let's constantly try and move that conversation forward," Sam urges. "If we all innovate in our respective roles, collectively, we'll achieve greater strides."
