TAKE FUCKING RISKS
We're back with another Take Fucking Risks and we've got 2 badass speakers lined up for you.
Cindy Gallop has been an idol of ours for years. Cindy started up ad agency Bartle Bogle Hegarty New York in 1998 and in 2003 was named Advertising Woman of the Year. She is the founder of IfWeRanTheWorld.com (a Harvard Business School case study) and makelovenotporn.com, launched at TED 2009 - 'Pro-sex. Pro-porn. Pro-knowing the difference' - and in 2013 launched social sex videosharing platform makelovenotporn.tv for which she has just raised $2million to scale.
Cindy speaks at conferences around the world, and describes her consultancy approach as "I like to blow shit up. I am the Michael Bay of business." Follow her on Twitter @cindygallop.
Ellie Flynn, one of the BBC's rising stars. An investigative journalist and presenter, Ellie currently has a documentary on BBC3 'Undercover with Ellie' investigating criminals offering rent for sexual favours and the botox epidemic. Ellie confronting criminals with nothing more than a hidden camera. Proper risky. Follow Ellie on Twitter @ellieflynn.
Paul Mellor, Creative Director of Mellor&Smith, known for his choice of loud trousers. Paul will also be our compere for the evening. Catch him for a beer before/after the event for plenty of swearing and stories about that time him and Jim (Smith) got stuck up a mountain together...
Mellor&Smith are a London based creative agency and creators of Take Fucking Risks. No bullshit. Oh and we also have a peculiar musical love for 80's Ghana funk.
Included in the ticket: A beer on arrival, a short talk from Paul Mellor, 20 minute talk from Ellie Flynn, and a 60 minute talk from the one and only Cindy Gallop.
