Ever wonder why you put eggs in fresh pasta? Or why you don't? Do different flours really make a difference? Chef Raffaele on Mano Bella Artisan Foods will dig into the art of pasta making. Attendees will taste four distinctly different types of pasta, all paired with from-scratch sauces that are perfectly suited for each pasta type. Option to purchase wine available.

ABOUT MANO BELLA ARTISAN FOODS:

By working hand-in-hand with local farmers and other artisan producers to source our ingredients, Mano Bella Artisan Foods brings beauty and this connection - one that is central not just to Italian cuisine but to all cuisines - to your table.

The Minimal NYC

Introducing The Minimal NYC. An app that connects you to people who are willing to trade lives. For real. Ever wonder what it’d be like to be a music teacher in Nashville? A children’s book illustrator in Brooklyn? A human rights activist in DC?

It’s a social network that facilitates real life swaps: you go to someone’s city, live in their home, hang with their friends and family, do their jobs, attend their events and activities. Yes, it’s totally intense… and it’s totally thrilling. Call us crazy, but we don’t think the best memories are made in the comfort zone.

Come check us out at the party (and sign up for The Minimal NYC account at one of our stations while you’re at it). Bottom line: it’s a startup launch. Good times will be had by all.

Define

Jessica Annas Defines the User Journey

We’re capturing more data than ever before. And we’re doing it more precisely. But we’re still not using data to its full potential. Used well, numbers can teach us about each other, inspire our creativity and help us take risks and innovate in our work.

12:00pm

Diverge

Ashton Ajayi Discusses Diverge Methods

Ashton Ajayi of Pixel Palace will explain how marketers can use our insights and knowledge about the customer to influence and improve the bigger business strategy.

Decide

Chris Logan Reviews Decide Methods

Everyone’s focusing on it, but it’s not a focused word. What does it mean exactly? Why does it matter? And how do we do it right? Attend small group workshops about mobile ads, mobile responsive site and mobile app development.
