The Art Directors Club of Europe is now accepting applications for the new edition of Agency Exchange, the programme that offers mid-level creatives the chance to spend 3 to 5 weeks in a new work-environment in a different European country, to collaborate with different teams, and share new perspectives. The programme is a journey of learning and cultural exchange, an exceptional opportunity for mid-level creatives to enhance their professional skills while working abroad – all without having to quit their current positions.

The initiative not only benefits the participants, but also gives agencies access to a diverse pool of talent from various cultures, countries, and backgrounds.

Agency Exchange is open to all professionals with a minimum 2 years experience who are eager to explore working opportunities abroad for a few weeks, as well as agencies interested in hosting creatives from all over Europe.

Past agency participants include Hasan&Parters (FI), Caffeina (IT), Triad (CZ), WKND (LV), PeterSmith (DE).

ADCE is committed to creating the best exchange matches, tailored to each participant’s preferences to foster powerful synergies and ensure a smooth and unique experience. For the exchange to take place, every agency proposing a participant must also host an attendee.

Deadline for application is May 10, 2024, with agency matches announced in June 2024, and exchanges taking place between September and November 2024. 

For further details, visit ADCE’s website or reach out via email at info@adceurope.org.

The campaign of this 2024’s edition was made by Beatriz Pinto, art director, and Carolina Cunha, copywriter, at Uzina Lisbon.
