Round Robin Discussion Groups

The event features small group breakouts hosted by topic experts. Every 20 minutes, we’ll rotate tables to hear from a new expert and meet new peers. By the end of the event, you’ll have been in a discussion group led by each of the three experts. Or, if you love one topic, stay there the whole night while peers rotate around you!

Topic 2: Building Brands with Comedy

Not every brand wants to be (or should be) “funny”, but there are core principles from comedy that can help create more dynamic and effective ads. Let’s talk about how different brands can access the same tools that fuel stand up, improv, sketch, and insurance commercials to start unlocking new connections with their audiences.

Topic 3: Audio Branding

Companies put huge effort into product design, but what happens when it comes to the product’s sound design and the overall brand engagement experience? The same product may emit tinny chirps or piercing beeps. Let’s discuss the sound of your brand and the value of audio branding.
