Zuo today announced its event programming for the upcoming Las Vegas Market along with the creation of an exclusive Designer Lounge in A442.
Sharing the concept behind 2019 marketing focusing, Marketing Coordinator Serena Martin said, “in Zuo’s marketing department, we work year-round to cultivate new relationships with brands and designers who are the top experts in their field. Creating unique marketing opportunities is just one way I am able to give back to our design community. From the 25+ annual events I produce for Zuo, to volunteering for the local ASID CA North Chapter, where I serve as Communications Director – I truly love what I do. From trade shows, events and panel discussions I aim to help market and educate while working to uplift and support our industry.”
Working with Head of Events and Partnerships, Reisa Elden from Ivy, the business management platform and community for designers, Zuo created an exclusive Designer Lounge in A442 as a place to connect with designers while learning more about the Ivy platform. Zuo and Ivy are offering designers a place to foster community and deepen business management skills, while enjoying coffee and small bites.
