With its history of brand building and innovation, Cincinnati has long been a global leader in consumer marketing. While few can rival the Queen City’s concentration of CPG marketing expertise, it has also become a hotbed for startups, creating a modern day entrepreneurial boomtown. In this presentation, Dave Knox, co-founder of top national startup accelerator The Brandery and CMO of digital agency Rockfish and its internal startup incubator Rockfish Labs, shows you how Cincinnati’s culture of creative disruption and collaboration is influencing the way we do business in every industry. You’ll see how Cincinnati and other cities can build for the future by: • Learning how agencies, startups and brands collaborate to drive digital innovation • Finding inspiration in Cincinnati’s heritage brands – from pottery to breweries – undergoing a renaissance • Looking at how the startup stratum in Cincinnati parallels what’s happening on the national scene This presentation was originally given on September 11, 2013 at the inaugural D2 Cincinnati Conference (http://d2cincinnati.com/)
