Leadership and the creative industries

As we emerge from two difficult years of lockdowns and reduced contact, the need to reconnect is greater than ever. As businesses recover they are looking for opportunities to widen their networks, find partners for joint projects, connect with policy makers and learn from their peers. We’ll open the event with a presentation on the state of the UK’s creative industries today and then we’ll have an opportunity to connect with other hubs, to talk through our experiences and share resources to support one another. Baltic Creative has been part of the European Creative Hubs Network project, which brings 80 UK and 200 EU hubs together to stimulate connections, collaboration and learning. We know how valuable the peer to peer support of other creative hubs has been in delivering for our tenants and members, and we’re excited to hear from UK hubs again to reconnect and share ideas. This event is delivered in partnership with Creative Hubs Connect, which links a British audience of hub leaders and tenants to an established international network; it connects us to educators, young people and policymakers.
