Thursday May 26th saw over 60 aspiring creatives  and 25 of Ireland’s most prominent Creative Directors gather in the Dublin offices of advertising and communications agency Ogilvy Group for Portfolio Night 9. Hosted in Dublin by Ogilvy for the second consecutive year, Portfolio Night is the world’s largest simultaneous advertising portfolio review event.

The event was also strongly supported by The Institute of Creative Advertising and Design (ICAD) and Windmill Lane Studios.  In a setting similar to ‘speed-dating,’ each aspiring creative received three 15-minute portfolio review sessions with three of the country’s most prominent Creative Directors, who offered them advice on improving their portfolios.  The evening also provided useful networking opportunities in break-out sessions organised on the night. In addition aspiring creatives got the opportunity to see a showcase of work by renowned illustrator John Berkely and leading photographer Dave Campbell.

Commenting on Portfolio Night 9, JP Donnelly, chief executive, Ogilvy Group in Ireland said: “Portfolio Night is clearly establishing itself as a key date on the Creative Advertising Calendar for both experienced and aspiring creatives. The feedback from our peers, over 25 Creative Directors from across the industry, was that this is a fantastic event, and so critical for our industry. The creative community need to pull together to develop our talent and take it to another level.”
