Who is it for?
Aspiring creatives. Portfolio Lab will be of massive benefit to recent graduates and final year students of any creative discipline (advertising, animation, design, media technology courses etc.) who have an advertising or design portfolio.

Why should you attend?
To get yourself and your portfolio in front of leading Irish Creative Directors.

This is your opportunity to cut through all of those emails and phone calls it usually takes to meet with, show your work to and gain constructive feedback from the superstars of Irish advertising and design.

Who will see your portfolio?
We will continue to confirm Creative Directors as bookings come in so we can best match them to your skill set. So far, taking part will be:
Adam Crane, Cawley NeaTBWA
Alvin Perry, Fresh
Bobby Byrne, Rothco
Carol Lambert and/or Ger Roe, Publicis
Emmet Wright, Chemistry
Gerard Whelan, Brandcentral

Rob O’Reilly, Scale
Robert Boyle, Target McConnells
Roisin Keown, DDFH&B

How does it work?
Each participant, of a maximum of 60, gets to speed date with 3 different Creative Directors. There is also an hourly portfolio Etiquette Class run by Eoghan Nolan of Brand Artillery and a chance to socialise and network with others in the breaks. The whole event is geared towards getting you creative feedback to make your portfolio even better, helping you get interview ready and introducing you to industry folk.
