Friday, April 20, 2012

Some ten years ago now the folks at IHAVEANIDEA had a brilliant idea: create a social event to foster a bright new generation of ad creatives by introducing established and rising talent superstars. On May 23, 2012, the sun will set on cities around the globe as hundreds of the world's top creative directors meet with thousands of aspiring copywriters, art directors and designers. Representing the California creative crème de la crop, agency 180 returns as host for Portfolio Night 10 (PN10) in Los Angeles.

"The mission is simple yet grand: to celebrate the next generation of creative talent, to guide them as they begin their fascinating careers in the advertising industry, and to raise their city's creative flag to be counted on the world stage," reads the Portfolio Night site. PN10 is set to occur simultaneously in 14 countries and 18 cities around the world.

At The Mill we celebrate creativity in all shapes, sizes and formats. Join us at PN10, the event at which "the best of the present meets the best of the years to come". It was at PN6 that 180 hosted and then hired one of the aspiring attendees -- who knows, it could be You this time around!
