Threadless In Conversation 2009

Seminar overview

As part of Portable's 2009 Symposium Series, Ross Zietz, Art Director for Threadless, will touch down in Australia to share his knowledge of the online design community, advice for upcoming and established online businesses, and the latest in social networking and online trends.

Zietz’s infinite knowledge and utter passion is guaranteed to inspire, encourage and motivate anyone with an interest in design, social networking, creative communities and online business. Tours will take place in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.

Created back in 2000 (when most of us used the internet solely for checking hotmail), Threadless dared to revolutionise the way people communicated online. Pioneering the idea that people around the world with similar interests should be able to communicate, share ideas and network in a free, safe and creative environment, graphic designers Jake Nickell and Jacob DeHart set about creating a site that allowed designers and creatives around the world a chance to interact, discuss ideas, analyse feedback and ultimately gain international exposure for their designs.
