Creative Keynotes will feature lightning talks from designers, product builders, and creative leaders. Each speaker has just 10-15 minutes to dive into a big idea: a personal story, a wild project, a creative breakthrough, or a design lesson that affected their trajectory.

Whether it’s a quick work share, a topic deep-dive, or a behind-the-scenes look at someone’s path — every talk is meant to spark inspiration, start conversations, and remind us that we’re all works in progress.

What to Expect:

• Dynamic speakers from across the creative and tech worlds

• Quick, engaging presentations

• Topics that range from personal journeys to project breakdowns

• Mingling before and after the talks

• A great crowd of designers, technologists, students, and curious minds

Speaker Lineup:

• Allison Supron Friel, Creative Director + Designer @ Block

• Emily Batt, Head of Product @ Co-Star Astrology

• Zachary Hobbs, Communications Design Director @ Ideo

• Addy Tan, Design Director @ Black Math
