From light shows to life design: Big ideas from the Portfolio Career Festival

“The future of the company is the individual.”

▶️Last weekBold Types #12: Philip Hofmacher on building businesses with heart.
▶️Today’s topic: The future of your portfolio career.

I went to The Portfolio Collective’s Portfolio Career Festival at the Ministry of Sound this week. 

A one-day event to explore the challenges and opportunities of portfolio work with talks on:

  1. How to land work as a portfolio professional.
  2. Ignite your personal brand with the power of storytelling.
  3. What does the future hold for portfolio professionals?

Fantastic light show to kick things off and wake us all up. Put your headphones on and listen to this. We love a light show! 

We had a bit of fun with gamified tribe quests and prizes to be won (I was with the ‘Arty Hearts’). Post your asks/offers on the activity board and connect with others. A nice ice-breaker when you’re on your tod.

Got chatting to Yalin Solmaz: Gen AI Advisor to Creators 🤖 Great energy!

Here are my takeaways from the main stage.
