LeWeb 2011 Live Infographics

The Project: As an official production partner at this year’s highly anticipated LeWeb ’11 Conference, JESS3 attended the conference to contribute what its best known for: beautiful data visualizations. The only catch? These infographics would be created in real-time. With the help of data partners Radian6, the JESS3 team created an infographic for each day of the conference using the topics discussed by the world-renowned panelists in attendance as well as the topics most widely discussed in the social media. Our Methodology: Before attending the conference, JESS3’s Art Director and on-the-ground illustrating correspondent Jim Hollander researched all attendees and panel topics thoroughly to ready some pre-designed assets for the potential infographics. While at the conference, using information curated both for its relevance and ability to be portrayed in a way that told the day’s story at-a-glance, Jim Hollander crafted three data rich infographics that will live far beyond the exciting three-day event.

ROI: Are You Getting Your Money's Worth from Congress?

Before we spend money on something, what’s the first thing we ask ourselves? What are we getting out of this?
