Advertising Week Schmooze Fest Details Announced
For those Mad Men and Mad Women out there, a reminder to pull out your Mont Blanc fountain pens and mark your dance card for the latest Advertising Week frivolities. The schedule which kicks off, September 21, has just been released and covers the topics keeping Madison Avenue awake at night; no not the late steak dinners - the economy and social media.If you’re more in the market for schmoozing your way up the corporate ladder or even on to the ladder, then there’s the AT&T sponsored nightly networking in Times Square hosted by Advertising Week co-chairs from ad agencies Crispin Porter + Bogusky and Deutsch.
Other festivities include a Wyclef Jean concert, a New York Television Festival premiere week screening and breakfasts featuring Chris Anderson and Mark Cuban. Google will also be on hand to talk social media. For the more musically inclined there’s YouTube’s Battle of the Ad Bands.
