THE BUSINESS OF BEING CREATIVE
SIDE EVENT Think outside the boat with Erik Kessels on a tour along the Spree river.
Ready to take your creative journey to the next level? Hop aboard for a unique, 3-hour boat tour along the Spree with the legendary Erik Kessels.
What are the challenges of starting your own company? When do you say yes, and when do you say no to jobs? How do you manage your own creativity and that one of others at the same time? And how do you sleep well at night?
In an intimate, interactive and intense get together, Erik Kessels will answer all these questions and share invaluable insights from his extensive work in art, design, and advertising. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the business side of creativity and learn how to navigate the challenges of being both a creative and an entrepreneur.
For three hours, Kessels will rock the boat, pushing you out of your comfort zone and into new ways of thinking. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, pick his brain about the industry, and connect with like-minded creatives. Expect to exchange ideas, gain fresh perspectives, and spark new inspiration along the way.
After the tour, we’ll return to HKW just in time to dive into the second day of the festival - feeling inspired, refreshed, and ready to take on the world.
Whether you’re new to Berlin or a local legend, this is your chance to see the city - and your creative path - From a whole new angle.
