Nov 22, 2013 Better With Pets Recap 1
As I mentioned in my blog post last week, Imprint’s very own founder, Julia Huang, was invited to speak at the Purina #BetterWithPets conference which took place in NYC earlier this week. She was invited to speak about Imprint’s Architecture for Dogs project, in conjunction with design guru Kenya Hara. It was a really incredible event – held in a beautiful venue (Florence Gould Hall) in midtown, featuring a ton of fascinating content from an eclectic panel of experts, each of whom presented a well-considered angle on the relationship between humans and our pets. The speakers included Purina CMO Steve Crimmins, Reddit founder Alex Ohanian, pet foster care giver Beth Stern, British cartoonist Simon Tofield, “America’s Veterinarian” Marty Becker, and many more pet luminaries. The event’s insightful host, journalist John Hockenberry, was incredibly good at introducing each speaker and tying all the content together nicely. Here are some snippet videos from the day’s talks, starting with the event preview video, followed by a snippet of Julia’s talk, along with several other interesting speakers!
