Adobe

Adobe UK have stepped into the breach and offered financial and logistical support to help with all the nice touches that will be seen around the room on the day. Asking nothing in return they are just keen to put something back into the design community. Thanks in particular to Eric McCashey. Adobe UK

Photography

This year, not one but two photographers. Pablo Gimenez Zapiola is flying in from Houston to create an anniversary video for us. Lots of you will know Christine Donnier-Valentin from her D&AD projects and this year she will be our official Podge lunch photographer. CDV Photography

Podge Website

If there was ever a website to get right, it’s the one for Podge. Happily Phil Jones is a dream client and the six figure budget also helps. When not risking life and limb being creative for creatives, Mook continues to fly a flag for digital transformation in every form as part of Nitro Group in London, with delicious work for everyone from Foot Locker to Mars and a generous helping of public sector, financial services and food clients.

The Arts Club

The Arts Club is being extensively refurbished in 2009. They are incredibly supportive of the Podge Community and have generously agreed to waive the joining fee for any Podge attendees wishing to join the club. Club secretary Brian Clivaz and Manager Ian Palmer were the team behind Home House and are now having a major impact on The Arts Club. Let’s support them and help turn it into a great venue for creatives. The Arts Club

The annual lunch for creative directors and MD's from the design community. The aim? Meet old and new friends, exchange stories and have fun.
