The United States Mission in Geneva, in collaboration with the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), cordially invites you to attend a unique discussion on innovation, the theme for World Intellectual Property Day 2017. The event will feature three prominent speakers who will focus on branding and visual communications, and how they encourage innovation.
The discussion, “Innovation in Communication: A State of Mind,” will look at how companies, governments, international agencies, and others can use visual and other forms of branding to distinguish themselves in a crowded and noisy market.
Key questions for discussion will include:
- When thinking about branding and communications, why should innovation be viewed as a state of mind?
- What are some of the most effective strategies for branding and communications across cultures?
- Can we use innovation and brand thinking processes from the commercial world to create social good?
