Wondering just what it is you’ll be learning at the BOLD Summit this year? Look no further! Here is a rundown of some of the topics we’ll be covering during the most intense two days of business development you’ve ever seen. Your time is valuable so it has to be high impact!
Day two kicks off with the third of our BOLD Masters, the inimitable Martyn Lawrence-Bullard. Beyond the notoriety of his design firm, Martyn is also known for his fabulous line of products including furniture, fabric, flooring, fragrances, and soon to be fashion and jewelry. He will share with attendees the keys to his success in a candid Q&A with Julia Molloy.
Next we dive into a products and licensing panel moderated by Natalie Norcross, founder of A Design Partnership. This panel features Crans Baldwin, who will be giving a presentation later in the day on how to navigate and adapt your business to your strategic advantage. Crans will share with us his insights into the marketplace as it is today, and offer options and solutions for designers seeking to grow, adapt, and differentiate their businesses in today’s challenging business climate.
Our Keynote Speaker Keith Granet will then present on licensing contracts and important strategic aspects of brand extension. He will help you to understand what milestones need to be met before launching a furniture line or licensing deal. Keith will also introduce a groundbreaking new tool that creates efficiency in your design process. This will be followed by BOLD Summit Founder Julia Molloy’s presentation on company structure and workflow.
Following lunch, we will hear from Crans Baldwin and Randy Fiser, chief executive officer of ASID. Dedicated to advancing community and economic development, he brings to his role a unique point of view about the capacity of design to make a positive impact on human health, well-being, and productivity. Randy is releasing new information on evidence based design that you can consider incorporating into your business offering.
Our final panel for the Summit will be on blogging, technology, and social media and how to make them work for you. Featured on this panel will be Anna Brockway, the chief curator from Chairish, and Mat Sanders from MyDomaine. Afterwards, you can join some free-form roundtable discussions with the experts featured over the two days of the Summit. Lastly, we will be treated to a summation by Chris Ramey, president of Affluent Insights and one of the most highly regarded experts in the luxury segment.
Wondering just what it is you’ll be learning at the BOLD Summit this year? Look no further! Here is a rundown of some of the topics we’ll be covering during the most intense two days of business development you’ve ever seen. Your time is valuable so it has to be high impact!
After an introduction by Julia Molloy, the owner of the BOLD Summit, we’ll start the day with our first BOLD Master, Kelly Hoppen MBE. In a Q&A session with Julia, Kelly will tell us all about the keys to her success and how she grew her business into an international powerhouse.
Next on the list is the founder of the Business of Design Summit, David Shepherd with his hands-on Action Map workshop. David has developed a process that helps the small business owner to clarify goals, focus strategy, and then identify the few critical learning and growth objectives that will effectively achieve those goals. It is progress on the learning and growth objectives that need to be measured, not accounting data. (Yes, he’ll be declaring “the end of accounting!”)
Kim Kuhteubl’s presentation “Tiny Tribe, Big Influence” is going to walk you through the process of identifying your most authentic message and develop a strategy for visibility and branding that will attract more of your ideal clients, make your brand more attractive to the media and align with the lifestyle you are striving for.
After lunch, sit down with our second BOLD Master, Joan Behnke, called “The Billionaire Whisperer” by Forbes magazine. Joan will share the decisions and techniques that have helped her build her business. Later in the day you’ll be able to join her for an intimate roundtable discussion — but sign up now, because Joan’s group is filling up fast!
Following this Q&A session, we will be presenting two panels that will provide all the information you need to get your work published. The first, “Think Like an Editor”, will be moderated by PR professional Barbara Pressman and feature editors from several prestigious interior design magazines. Afterwards, join renowned photographers Laura Hull and Victoria Pearson for “Photos and Points of View” where they will discuss exactly how photographing your work affects your likelihood of being published.
After a snack and sponsor showcase, we’ll head into our first roundtable sessions and portfolio reviews with the aforementioned editors. We’ll end the day with the presentation of our BOLD Masters awards. If you haven’t already signed up for our exclusive BOLD Masters Dinner at the Piazza de Liberace, now is the time to do it! There are only six slots left for this amazing, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The owners of Liberace’s house in Palm Springs have graciously opened their home to us for dinner after the BOLD Masters Award Ceremony, Thursday June 25th. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore the beautiful home that was remodeled by Christopher Kennedy in 2010.
After the first day of the Summit, you will be given time to relax and refresh before being whisked away in a limousine provided by BOLD. Once you arrive, you can mingle with the BOLD Masters and Speakers during an elegant cocktail party perfect for socializing and expanding your industry connections. This will be followed by an intimate dinner on the magnificent Liberace property. Kelly Hoppen, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, Joan Behnke, Keith Granet, editors from Interiors Magazine, Traditional Home and Robb Report will be in attendance as well as many more.
The BOLD Master’s dinner is sponsored by Interiors Magazine. A portion of the proceeds will go to benefit Modernism Week, providing scholarships to local students pursuing college educations in the fields of architecture and design, as well as supporting local and state preservation organizations in their efforts to preserve modernist architecture throughout the state of California.
In an informal interview with BOLD Speaker Kim Kuhteubl, Julia Molloy tells us all about our BOLD Masters for 2015: Kelly Hoppen, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, and Joan Behnke!
Believing in negative thoughts is the single greatest obstruction to success. Sometimes those thoughts can become overwhelming; it can be hard to see through the worry and fear and take the necessary steps to move forward. That’s why we are here to help you!
At the BOLD Summit, we connect you with the leading industry experts who have already confronted these doubts and overcome! They know how to do it and do it well and they are here to show you the way. Kelly Hoppen, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, and Joan Behnke are three Masters of interior design and at BOLD 2015 you will get the opportunity to hear their stories, ask them questions, and learn what you need to know to succeed.
You will leave the BOLD Summit not only with the tools but with the knowledge that it is possible and and it’s possible for you!
