Girls (in Advertising) Just Wanna Have FUN!

NEW YORK, NY – February 12^th, 2007 – Last Thursday, female (and some male) advertising executives came out in the bitter cold to celebrate at CORIO in
New York City
.  Why? They were celebrating the one year anniversary of their favorite networking portal: AdFemme.com.

AdFemme.com was created out of the need for women in a male-dominated industry to network, teach and learn from each other. “When I went to trade shows all the guys had male focused events. I felt left out. I am so glad Lindsay created this community so that we can all co-mingle and have fun and be self expressed” – Julie Tripi, Account Supervisor at Euro RSCG.

The “Ad Femme Birthday Party” got started at 7pm with Barefoot Bubbly & POM cocktails, and was followed by 3 hours of premium open bar, pass hors d’oeuvres, dinner, prize giveaways, karaoke, and gift bags. Ad Femme Members and guests networked to the perfectly spun tunes of one of NYC’s top DJs. Check out pictures CLICK HERE

, Digitas, Euro RSCG, MIVA, AzoogleAds, PermissionData, and Underscore Marketing, were in attendance. “Great party, great food, great music and the karaoke was a nice touch” said Bonnie Zaben, COO of ACLion, and the winner of a necklace and earrings set from TheStringBeanShop.com!

Ad Femme Party gift bags included a bottle of FUZE, BeautyRiot.com lipstick, $10 coupon for Fretzels.com, a book from Downtown Press, BeverlyD gift certificated, Mirror Mints from Little i, Vibrel for Women, Arbonne beauty gift certificate, Emily Mure’s music CD, NYC Subway Maps, Airborne, and more!
