Thinking of going to the PFSK Conference NYC 2009 but need a nudge? Check out what past attendees from our world-wide events had to say:
“The agenda was very compelling going into it, and I did leave with many interesting insights and new ideas about marketing and communications.”
“I went last year and although it was only one day, it was a connection hub of trends and ideas. Many of the trends I was not aware of, as I was new to PSFK, but over the year, I saw many of these ideas that we spoke about take hold. This year’s conference will be set within more challenging times, so the creative ideas should offer even more poignancy and immediacy with pressure for authenticity.”
“I had a damn good time. Thanks to all who helped organise this, and all the speakers. A special mention must go to Piers for setting the whole shebang up. Legend, in a word.”
“I suspect some of the stuff I learnt is going to inform a fair few posts of my own in the next few week.”
Charles Frith, freelance planner:
“I think one of the best things about PSFK apart from the interesting people they invite to share their work is the informal and fun networking through the day and in the bar afterwards”
“I would strongly strongly strongly suggest if you’re around Los Angeles that day go. Just go. It will be, without doubt one of the best ways to spend time that day… make sure you go whenever the PSFK roadshow rolls into your town next.”
“It was a chance to be surrounded by clever people, a chance to switch off the Blackberry and an opportunity to have some thought space and engage with some smart ideas.
“The content off all the presentations was great. And hey, as you know, I never stop banging the drum about the value of great content, rather than its means of delivery.”
“What was great about the conference was the way the people speaking and attending knew there is a dramatic change taking place within the advertising, marketing and communication industry.”
“I was so inspired by the recent PSFK conference in London that I took some of my favourite bits and put them in a presentation.”
Andrew Hovells, TBWA Manchester:
“The conference was one of the better design conferences i have attended, a smaller venue but much more interesting speakers, like Jeff Staples and Rob Campbell from sunshine, who spoke their minds about design in Singapore and elsewhere. I liked the honesty and candidness of the speakers.”
“The conference provided a great platform for networking with international speakers, and meeting up with like-minded people.”
“Too many “what is social media” discussions are boring — this one is not — it even includes a birthday cake — you can’t get more social than that!.”
Lucian Teo, Ministry of Education (Singapore):
“The PSFK Conference was easily one of the best conference I’ve ever attended. And that’s saying a lot, considering I’ve been to quite a number both here in Singapore and abroad.”
“I think of it as a day of ideas.”
“What a wicked day it was, great to hear some fun presentations by some pretty switched on people.”
Random Sunday, t shirt designers:
“We had the opportunity / privilege to attend this event on Friday and it was really an eye-opener. You met people around the world who believe in creative ideas that could change the world for the better.”
“Listening to so many positive examples and people was inspiring and comforting to know that many are dedicated to making positive changes across the world on a one-by-one basis”
“I participated in the conference in SF this summer and had my thinking changed by at least two of the speakers.”
“What is really cool, is the fact that we all came from different backgrounds, but shared a common passion: the need and want to be truly creative”
