Intuit QuickBooks Connect

Big Thinking for Small Business.

Manifold partnered with Intuit to concept and produce the iconic, inaugural marquee event that captivated and inspired Intuit’s community. QuickBooks Connect was a multi-day experience that brought thousands of entrepreneurs, small businesses, accountants and developers together to grow,  learn and connect with one other.

With A-level speakers through-out the day including Oprah, Martha Stewart, Magic Johnson combined with an evening concert performance by Train, the show etched its place in Intuit’s event roster as a yearly must-attend for attendees. Inside the conference center, we brought Main Street to  life by recreating actual Intuit  small business and partner storefronts, where attendees explored, browsed and connected with products  they cared about.

We developed a Networking Park inside the convention center complete with turf,  faux trees, a giant chess board, hammocks, picnic tables, food carts and networking activities like inspiration walls and games. The pop-up entertainment and collaborative net-working activities offered attendees a unique environment to make new connections with other conference attendees.

“You tackled a daunting challenge: How to attract and delight such different audiences?! You aced it by creating an emotional experience that connected to people in their hearts. And yet one that fed the mind with practical takeaways.”
Scott Cook, CEO, Intuit
