Design & Innovation

I just found out about an awesome event being held Wednesday, June 11th, at Johnny Brenda’s in Fishtown. Essentially, speakers in the fields of art, entrepreneurship, design and innovation are given 5 minutes to talk about their company or idea. The speakers hail from diverse backgrounds and many are local innovators who own their own businesses. Take a look at the speakers - view their web sites. I found it very inspiring. Also, if you can go tonight, I urge you to do so!
