YCN + Thirsty Planet - OUGD502

YCN -

YCN showed  brief understanding of the company, I didn't personally know much about what YCN offer outside the student awards. They help out clients; research briefs, help clients get the best they can from who they work with and set up events for clients plus more. I asked if the company had ever thought about creating some sort of creative network or community for creatives everywhere. They seemed to like the question and wanted to engage further I spoke about how I find inspiration or talk to people through events and how could this lead to some sort of community to help build confidence and work. Both speakers left their emails for me to contact them about the idea further so I am looking forward to starting a conversation with this organisation.

Thirsty Planet -

Harrogate water is the longest running bottled water and spa in the UK, they have a very low carbon footprint with no landfill waste. In 2007 they wanted to give back to the world even more, so they set up the charity Thirsty Planet with fixed donations, a charity that is trustworthy (Pump Aid) and with a sustainable vision for the future. The insight into the company was quite helpful to see the client's side of rebranding a product and to give an insight into what could be expected from some of the companies in YCN.
