Thanks to Charles Mangin of www.option8.com for setting this up – it was informative and interesting. See you at the Interactive Town Square on August 27th…. for more info go to www.aiga.com

Raleigh has a chapter of the AIGA -  raleigh.aiga.org/

– I attended a bunch of the AIGA lectures and networking events when I was in SF, and I found it really inspiring and useful.

I got to meet Bruce Mau and the designers from Lust from the Netherlands,

As you can see the board members of the Raleigh Chapter are all fairly heavy hitters from Design/Marketing Firms in the Area

Like Ogilvy and Capstrat

I think it would be a really good way to get your presence known in the area and have a good chance of recruiting local talent
