Enjoy the culinary delights The Londoners' exquisite kitchen has to offer as part of your day pass.

Formulas, data and optimisation are ruining the creative industries. In fact, Amy Kean believes we are currently facing a 'normality crisis' in which everyone's starting to talk, act and sound the same, in order to gain mass approval. But where's the weirdness? Where are the renegade voices, driven by being different? This session will talk about the science of weirdness and why creatives need to get more comfortable with being disliked, especially in the era of social media. And from a culture perspective, we'll discuss why bad ideas are actually the best ideas you can have.

Join us for a special session with Moxie Pictures award-winning TV and film producer, director and screenwriter, Edgar Wright. In conversation with Chaka Sobhani, Global CCO of Leo Burnett, Wright will discuss the incredible journey that has since established him as one of the major creative voices in British comedy and entertainment. From the cult sitcom “Spaced” to the era-defining Cornetto Trilogy and other major Hollywood successes, the pair will explore his latest commercial work for SquareSpace, Nike, and McDonald’s, how short-form content can often inspire long-form and why it is important to be distinctive within the industry.

This exciting day comes to a close and for those attendees wanting to continue to catch up, the bar on the roof of The Londoner or the main bar in the reception, are ideal places to continue.
