Robert Newton is a globe trotter or at least he was before March 2020. Being the Global Lead Event Producer for EY still keeps him on his toes he just doesn’t see many airports these days.  Over his 26 years at EY, he and the events team have produced events in over 20 countries.  We talk to him about everything from the navy, The Atlanta College of Art, a Grateful Dead cover band to his current position at EY.  What did he learn along the way?  He learned that strong collaboration in concept, creativity and execution will lead to innovative and enduring experiences for their audiences.  Outside of work, Robert’s zen is illustration and creating music.  Speaking of music, we discovered that he still has some tie dye around the house and even the costume he wore as a performer at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta!
