PSFK NYC Conference: This is 4 the serious playa. One of my favorite blogs & trend companies PSFK is organizing a serious conference on April 2nd. The event celebrates the most creative ideas and inspirational organizations emerging from the city - people who they write about on their daily news site at PSFK.com. Geared toward strategists & creatives the panel will tackle the realm of design, digital, & advertising. Speakers include Carl Johnson from Anomaly, Kevin Slavin from area/code, & Ben Malbon from BBH Labs 2 name a few. I’ve been 2 a PSFK conference b4 & it’s serious business.
