I've finally combed through hundreds of incredible sessions and panel events that make up next week's Advertising Week X, and have drafted my own intellectual itinerary. Here's where I'll be from September 23 through 26.
With so many luminaries and sexy topics, I'm going to have to store up energy like a squirrel stores nuts for winter so I can make it through this list. Expect several posts from me during the week, both here and at the Advertising Week Social Club.
If you're going to be at one or more of these, let me know. I'd love to meet you. Also let me know if you'd like to grab coffee or lunch during one of the gaps in my schedule, or meet up for a drink after the last event of the day.
See you all in NYC!
