DESCRIPTION
Chris Thurling founded digital agency 3Sixty in 1995 and ran the firm for 17 years until moving on to pastures new in 2013. In this session Chris candidly reflects on the ups and downs of those 17 years and share some of his thoughts on what he would do differently (and a few things he’d keep the same) if he had his time again.
