October Creativ Week: Influencing Influencers
Welcome to October Creativ Week! Creativ Week is an experience that takes place the first Thursday through Saturday of every month, focused on finding the “Creativ” in each and every one of us and exploring how creativity can impact a community.
This month, we have partnered with the projects* for a week centered around the theme of Influencing Influencers. With an incredibly diverse group of ‘creativ’ individuals from a variety of industries, we will explore the unique way of leading that make influencers who they are. During our Creativ Week Showcase, we will learn how we can create communities of influential people, exceptional experiences, content and engagement to build brand loyalty and love.
Our co-curators for the week: the projects* (@liveintheprojects)
Welcome to the most influential agency in the world: the projects*. They shift perception, influence people and create brand love. the projects* was created in 2008 to breathe fresh air into the world of events and branded experiences. They’ve made their name by anticipating trends, leading conversations and moving at the speed of culture… and they believe in the art and science of influencing people through credible, inspiring experiences.
We are excited to bring everyone together to explore DTLV and share their ‘Creativ’ perspectives.
The CatalystCreativ Team
Not familiar with CatalystCreativ? CatalystCreativ is a Downtown Project funded company that started here in August 2012. Our mission is to provide a window for the rest of the world into Downtown Project. We do this by creating unique and meaningful experiences in DTLV that encourage guests to engage with the project beyond Catalyst Week and spread the message of DTP to their own communities.
