As you may or may not have noticed, around these neck of the woods we really encourage idea conjurers, creative minds, thinking outside of the box and all of that jazz. So, it is with great pleasure that we point you up and comers in the direction of Modular's new think tank initiative - The Groop.

Modular are on the look out for the cream of Sydney's young, aspiring creative professionals; photographers, journalists, creative directors, copywriters, art directors, web designers, filmmakers, illustrators, graphic designers, digital ninjas... And anyone else who has the capacity for great ideas and the mindset to think a little different, regardless of their experience or background. The Groop will be made up of 14 successful applicants who will be given the opportunity to directly contribute to the creative strategy of Modular Ideas.

There's some great guest speakers lined up to share their thoughts and generally contribute to the think tank, such as Mark Pollard (Strategy Director at McCann Sydney), Michael Ritchie (Executive Producer of Revolver), Marcus Westbury (Broadcaster, Writer, Media Maker and Festival Director) and plenty more. There's only just under one week to apply, and due to a large number of requests appications can be submitted via email attachment to chris@thegroop.com.au, but sure you download the form here first.

And for you network socialites, make sure you follow The Groop on Twitter.
