SUMMARY:Curious Connections: A Morning of Unexpected Encounters
DESCRIPTION:What happens when you bring a room full of curious creative people together and give them permission to connect a little differently? We’re not entirely sure…and that’s kind of the point! \n  \nLeave your fun facts at home. Think more summer camp than corporate icebreaker. Come ready to move around\, make a secret handshake with a stranger\, discover the room’s reigning typeface trivia champ\, and follow a conversation somewhere unexpected. We may not have chairs. We definitely won’t have traditional networking. \nCome curious. See what happens. \nEvent Sponsor:\nUniversity of Cincinnati

SUMMARY:Packaging Beyond Print: Emotion\, Experience & Emerging Trends
DESCRIPTION:Packaging is more than a container. It’s a brand’s most tangible touchpoint.  \nJoin Grit & Pearl as we unpack the intersection of design\, psychology and sensory experience that drives successful packaging design. Through hands-on discussion and comparative packaging examples\, we will examine how leading brands build shelf presence and create packaging systems designed for long-term brand impact. We’ll also touch on some history that lead where we are today and what’s next for the packaging industry. Discover why the most impactful packaging goes far beyond printed design. \nEvent Sponsor:\nGrit & Pearl

SUMMARY:Evolving Iconic Brands: What to Preserve\, What to Push and What to Let Go
DESCRIPTION:Design is a continuous push toward making things better\, clearer\, and more relevant. But in the pursuit of what’s next\, it can be easy to lose the quirks\, signals and stories that made a brand’s expression distinctive in the first place. \nDrawing from LPK’s experience evolving iconic brands\, we will explore the tension between preservation and progress: what equity is worth protecting\, how far an identity can move before it stops feeling familiar\, and how history can become creative material rather than a constraint. Along the way\, we’ll reveal three hypothetical refreshes for iconic CPG brands\, using each to spark discussion around what to preserve\, what to amplify and how far is too far. \nEvent Collaborator:\nLPK \nGraphic Village
