For its first event, Pilcrow House welcomes Scott Belsky, author of the newly released The Messy Middle in a one-on-one conversation about creativity, business, entrepreneurship, and launching products that people care about.
The first 50 attendees will receive a free copy of Belsky’s new book: The Messy Middle. But all attendees will definitely have a great time.
You will enjoy this event if ANY of these apply to you:
- You are in the middle of a large, messy product at work or your business and are looking for insights to help you get over the hump.
- You work in the creative industry.
- You’re interested in being more focused and productive so you can accomplish your best work.
- You run (or are about to run) a new startup or business.
