Innovation Week Comes To Milwaukee!

 

Manifesto is proud to be part of Milwaukee’s emerging innovation community. And we’re ready to show it off! Enter Milwaukee Innovation Week: a first-of-its-kind showcase for the brightest ideas Cream City has to offer. Working with Spreenkler and MiKE, Manifesto spearheaded MIW branding and helped land sponsors likeHarley-Davidson and Kohl’s. We also invited COMMON to host their Common Pitch event as the centerpiece of week! Previously held in such far-flung locales as Boulder, Colorado and Capetown, South Africa, Common Pitch pits eight smart start-ups against each other, before celebrity judges, for cash and prizes. Learn more and apply at http://commonpitchmke.com/. See you there!

Destination Austin: SXSW 2012

Last week designers, developers and trendspotters took to the streets of Austin for the annual SXSW Interactive. Fighting a sea of moustaches, beer and light-up schwag, Manifesto attended a myriad of events hosted by some of the world’s biggest (and smallest) start-ups. Highlights include breaking the Guinness Book of World Records for number of adults assembled in one place wearing onesie-style PJs, a Burning Man-esque camp at Austin Caravan, a sumptuous Summit Series dinner with Nicole Patrice Johnson and X-Prize founder Peter Diamandis’s call to social action. The only thing SXSW offered too little of was, well, sleep.
