Special Olympics. National Geographic Society. Feeding America. American Cancer Society. World Wildlife Fund.
These are just a few of the representing organizations who will present their ideas at the Bridge Conference on July 10-12, themed “Change the World with Ideals.” We’re looking forward to attending and learning from these best-in-class nonprofit leaders.
This year marks Tension’s fourth time at the Bridge, and each year we’ve returned home refreshed and energized from insights we’ve gained. Whether it’s learning in the classroom settings, in the larger keynotes or conversing in the exhibit hall, Bridge Conference organizers make it easy for attendees to get the most out of their experience.
Bridge Classes: Insights for All
Classroom learning at the Bridge Conference is second to none. The content is top-notch, there’s such a variety of topics that there’s something for attendees of all backgrounds – agencies, consultants and marketers – and each class is grouped under a relevant learning track. Here are a few that caught our attention:
2019 Bridge Conference Learning Tracks
- Telling Your Story: The Offer, Copy and Images – storytelling is both an art and science, and this track describes ways to create stories that can be repurposed time and time again. Yep, integrated marketing is where it’s at.

Inspiring Keynotes
Tim Shriver, Chairman of the Board, Special Olympics, will deliver his keynote, “The Inclusion Revolution: How Our Country’s Most Excluded Citizens Are Awakening a New Hope,” on Thursday, July 11. In the past, keynotes at the Bridge have delivered in terms of highlighting themes that hold universal, inspiring lessons. We are looking forward to hearing from the Chairman of such a respected organization and one who has a personal, familial connection to the organization through his mother and Special Olympics founder, Eunice Kennedy Shriver.
