Adobe 99U Conference

What is the 99U Conference?

As I continue to pursue my personal interest and fascination with design, I peel back the onion. Reading books on design and meeting great people has been a highlight so far but being in the thick of it finally happened at 99U. One of the most valuable, if not the most important asset of a business is community. If you have this, it can be a guiding light and force towards success.

First, let’s start from the beginning, everyone knows Photoshop. The company that produces and distributes Photoshop is Adobe. Adobe is the parent company of Behance and 99U. Adobe has a catalog of products for designers, students, marketers, and creatives of all levels of experience.

Behance is the digital hub for the creative community. There, designers in all industries, backgrounds, and disciplines upload their work and share. There is a true understanding, respect, and support system on this platform. Designers look for critiques, encourage each other, provide support, and find work opportunities. This is a great point for inspiration, community building, and motivation on Behance.
