CultureCon calls itself the largest creative homecoming, and the organizers expect 12,000 creative entrepreneurs, creators and cultural leaders at Duggal Greenhouse. Beyond the talks on the Culture Stage and Creative Business Stage, a Career Lounge brings recruiters from brands like HBO Max and Nike for speed networking all weekend. If you are building a creative career, it is two days of rooms you would not otherwise get into.
What to expect
A campus spread across buildings in the Brooklyn Navy Yard: seated stage programming with closed captions, workshops, brand activations, a merch shop and networking. Most of it is indoors, with some outdoor elements.
