About Beautiful Minds
Program Details
The Beautiful Minds program is a hybrid planning bootcamp and networking event. Participants will get a free crash course in planning from some of the top planners in the industry. Directly afterwards, participants will be split into teams of 4-5 and given a chance to apply their learnings to a brief. The teams who’ve best addressed the brief will be able to present their brilliant strategies in front of a room packed full of heads of departments and recruiters. Although we're only able to select a few finalists to present at the showcase, all participants will have the same opportunities to network with judges, mentors, and recruiters.
