Special Achievement

Innovation Strategy Award Winner Debbie Amato

Presented at Trend Hunter’s Future Festival World Summit event, the award recognized her Poster Sessions tactic – a ritual resembling a science fair for adults, where people share ideas to create collisions. These sessions are about “making coincidences happen” and are centered around the idea that different perspectives and collaboration lead to unexpected and inspiring outcomes.
