How Creative Quarterly differs from other Adobe events
•   MAX / A huge live event (~15k attendees) for the creative community tied to Adobe products to inspire,
    demo our tools, and build community.
•   99U / A midsize live event (~1k attendees) that intersects the Behance community and Adobe products
    to provide career advice and resources for up-and-coming artists.
•   Discover / An online resource that intersects Adobe learn content with curated creative influencers
    from an editorial POV and tied to customer segments.
•   Creative Quarterly / An intimate live event(~15–30 attendees) held in-house to showcase creativity by
    speakers who may or may not use Adobe products.

Growing Creative Quarterly
•   More speaker events to compile robust programming in the form of synopsis +
    videos similar to https://www.npr.org/series/tiny-desk-concerts/
•   Global expansion by scaling programming across Adobe worldwide depts.
•   Persistent article in Studio’s monthly newsletter
•   Pop-ups at conferences like MAX
        • Panel at MAX of CQ speakers
        • Round table discussions to bring the intimate angle to MAX; small groups spend 20–30 minutes with
          their mentors
       • Screening room for small groups to view a series of shorts (5-minute edits of the current year’s speakers),
          followed by a meet-and-greet with the featured speakers

Elevate Adobe Studio to a design leadership role
By scaling this program worldwide, Adobe Studio can expect to have a stronger visibility within the community
and with Adobe executives.
