For our second installment of “session spotlights,” we’re shining a light on “Driven by design, empowered by technology" — a session hosted by Leo and Stefanie Zakour on October 5th in San Francisco and online at 2:40 PM PT.

As the co-founders of Refokus — a design-driven creative agency that builds websites for small startups and Fortune 500 companies alike — Leo and Stefanie know a thing or two about using design and technology to stand out in a fast-paced marketing landscape. 

For them, the key lies in forming genuine emotional connections with their audience, and their session focuses on how to channel that connection into creativity and innovation. 

Now, let’s take a deeper look at this session and what you can expect on October 5th.
