Beijing, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Singapore and Tokyo to host ADC Portfolio Nights on May 20

ADC, the first non-profit membership organization to celebrate and award the global creative community, announced the first 24 city hosts to join the ADC Portfolio Night global stage, the world’s largest simultaneous portfolio review and recruitment event taking place on May 20, 2015.

Five of the Portfolio nights will take place in the region: Beijing hosted by Ogilvy & Mather, Hong Kong hosted by Ogilvy & Mather, Shanghai hosted by Ogilvy & Mather, Singapore hosted by Bates CHI & Partners and Tokyo hosted by Saatchi & Saatchi Fallon Tokyo.

ADC Portfolio Night is a fast-paced evening of advice, networking and recruitment, where aspiring young advertising copywriters, art directors and designers meet with renowned advertising creative directors in industry hubs across the world. Since the event takes place on the same date across all 24 cities, an international fervor builds as each city hosts it own event and then tunes into thousands of fellow participants across the world sharing the same experience.

“I am so proud not only to see Portfolio Night enter its 13th season, but to see such incredible agencies and organizations step up to host the event and mentor the next generation of talent entering the business,” said ADC Executive Director Ignacio Oreamuno. “It’s like a springtime New Year’s Eve celebration for the advertising industry, where the best of the present meet the best of the future around the world,” Oreamuno continued.
