Events in mornings don't normally work for me as they tend to run from 8–9am (I'm a busy guy and mornings are normally crazy taking my daughter to daycare) but CreativeMornings/Vancouver is from 8:30–10am, so not even the parents among us have an excuse to miss this inaugural event (September 2, at W2 Media Café).
Logistics aside, Stewart Butterfield (the co-founder of Flickr and named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world) will be talking and telling his story, followed by a 20 minute group discussion. This is going to be a very engaged and rare opportunity to see such a speaker in Vancouver and in such an intimate setting (and remember it's FREE). The tickets will be released on August 29th and are limited to 150 seats (register at: http://vancouvercreativemornings.eventbrite.com on Monday, August 29th).
It's awesome that Vancouver's creative community is getting the credit it deserves and thanks to Mark for bringing this event to our city.

UPDATE: At precisely 11am on Monday, August 29th 150 tickets for CreativeMornings/Vancouver's first event became available to the public. By 11:02:50, less than three minutes later, they were completely sold out, with 130 disappointed people on the waiting list. The lesson? Vancouver's creative community is hungry for this sort of event, and if you want tickets for the next one, set a reminder alarm and be ready!
