RYAN HUNT

My first expo as a designer.

 

To say the least, I was overwhelmed by the stoke. 

 

Everywhere I turned, there was a new booth with a unique brand experience & a sustainability story that showed we can play in the wild & take care of it too. The educational events expanded my inspiration & guided my thoughts as to how the industry will continue to evolve. I could not be more excited to be a developing designer, searching for a place to make an impact in an industry such as this one. It is important to be a lifelong learner, & I am grateful to have attended some great events that took place throughout the show.

 

From the different areas where panels were hosted, to the individual experiences they shared, it was obvious to me that the outdoor industry strives for growth. Regardless of whether each brand focuses on recreation or competition, it is incredible to see them come together in an event such as this one.
