The videos of last week’s Ignite Bal­ti­more 5 are all avail­able on YouTube; life is good.

The event itself was great; big­ger and even bet­ter than IB4.

Here are a few of the more mem­o­rable pre­sen­ta­tions:

tran­script of Brian Sacawa’s talk
Part of what I liked about this talk was the belief in Bal­ti­more he expressed– that we are not sim­ply, “Brooklyn’s farm team.” His tongue-in-cheek humor didn’t hurt either.

Wolver­ine AND Teddy Roo­sevelt in the same pre­sen­ta­tion?! Yes, please. Why do I have a feel­ing Tom has a master’s the­sis worth of notes on this topic lurk­ing in his sketchbooks.

A great, smart young woman who is work­ing hard to change the world around her.

To me, this was the most impor­tant talk of the night–a brand strate­gist talk­ing about the power of sto­ry­telling and the val­ues of the­atre being applied in business.
