2. Clubhouse is officially out of beta mode

Clubhouse is finally open to everyone on all platforms. From the team:

If you’re hosting a public event, anyone can attend. You can bring close friends, classmates, family members, coworkers, and anyone else you like — on iOS or Android.

The Summit will feature appearances by many of today’s most culturally innovative CMOs.
