From Disney to All Nippon Airlines, companies know the unique opportunity the convention provides

It’s no secret that collaboration is essential to growth, but the how of it isn’t always so clear—and it's the understanding of how that is a true competitive advantage. Join Adweek X, a uniquely formatted event on December 4 in LA, to unlock fresh perspectives, true collaboration and growth.

From Oct. 11-14, more than 200,000 people made the pilgrimage to Manhattan’s Javits Center for New York Comic Con, the annual gathering of fans across movies, television, comic books, anime and video games.
