All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
Pancho Terán, General Creative Director of TRIBU / Nazca Saatchi Saatchi, (very serious in this photo!) is a member of the jury for the New York Festival, and for this reason, we have seen him focused on his mission, which at the [...]
