Where

The BrandLab has been organizing an annual Fearless Conference in Minneapolis for the last ten years, bringing together professionals from the marketing and advertising industry, as well as The BrandLab alumni and anyone seeking inspiration and motivation. The conference aims to facilitate discussions on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the industry, with a focus on The BrandLab's four pillars. These pillars include Exposure, Access, Opportunity, and Equity, which are crucial in changing the face and voice of the industry. To promote Exposure, The BrandLab engages with students in the classroom and inspires young professionals of color to explore career pathways in marketing and advertising. The organization also provides Access to real-world learning opportunities, skill-building, and training through paid internships and fellowships. The BrandLab is committed to creating long-term Opportunity for young professionals by removing barriers and building pathways to the industry through youth leadership and engagement, scholarships, and job-readiness opportunities. Finally, The BrandLab's Fearless programming ensures Equity by working with the industry to eliminate bias and exclusion in the workplace and ensure that the work produced is culturally competent and equitable. The ultimate goal is to help rising stars enter a workplace where they can thrive and succeed.
