Common Matters #5: Final speaker lineup for Manchester

What are you doing on Thursday 11th September?

Being inspired? Having your mind opened? Hearing from world-class speakers? Enjoying a pint?

Sounds like we’re going to see you at Band on the Wall, for our fifth Common Matters event.

(Wait… has the name changed? Yes it has, thanks for noticing.)

Why do we put on design events?
We’re a global design recruitment company with a simple ambition: to enhance the studios, careers, and lives of everybody we partner with.

It’s our job to highlight and celebrate the most incredible design talent the world has to offer. So it’s only right that we give those people a platform by hosting our own events.

Announcing our third speaker:

Andy Harvey: Founder & Executive Creative Director of COMMUNION

Purpose is a word thrown around a lot in the creative landscape – but Communion take WHY they do what they do to new levels.

See how brands can stay culturally relevant and driven by real meaning in a rapidly changing world. Drawing on their work with global icons such as Burberry, Apple and Nike, alongside innovators like ZEGNA and MERCURY 13, Andy will offer a clear perspective on how creativity can truly equal progress.
