5 Minutes to Shine

APAP is seeking story submissions NOW. Deadline is October 1, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. EDT. Selected stories will be featured at APAP|NYC 2025 (January 10-14).
You’ve got a story to share. We want to hear it.

Maybe you’ve discovered new ways of doing business. Or you’ve explored new ways to reach audiences, create work, or promote artists. Perhaps your team experimented in small ways that had a bigger impact on you or your company than you expected. Undoubtedly many of you are ditching old tactics for new ones and have learned something in the process.

Now’s the time to share those stories with your colleagues…because we all need some inspiration and new ideas to navigate the current times.

This year, Five Minutes to Shine (5MTS) will showcase stories of reinvention, innovation, insight, and experimentation from the last few years. These bursts of inspiration will be featured at conference and beyond, and we hope they’ll spark story sharing among fellow conference attendees during our January gathering.

APAP is seeking story submissions NOW. Deadline is October 1, 2024 at 11:59 p.m. EDT. Selected stories will be featured at APAP|NYC 2025. Guidelines for 5 Minutes to Shine submissions can be accessed here.
