Join Creative UK and Digital Catapult for a two-day event on the 16th and 17th of June, focused on building bridges to innovation.

Developed by Creative Enterprise, Advance and Digital Catapult with support from XPLOR, we are looking to bring together screen industry innovators to hear from experts and find new ways to collaborate towards accessing funding.

The first day of the event will focus on the best ways to innovate and collaborate, while the second day’s focus will be solely on funding and finding ways to address the briefs set forward by Digital Catapult and Creative Enterprise. Together, the funding initiatives and challenges presented will open more than £500,000 of funding available to applicants, as well as highlight other ways to fund innovation in the creative sectors.

We are looking forward to welcoming companies and freelancers from the following fields: games, film & tv, animation or immersive (AR/VR/MR/XR/VP) – prioritising those who have not yet had the chance to take part in an Advance workshop!

Places for this event are limited. Any creative industry companies or freelancers are welcome to attend. However, if interest is strong we will be prioritising businesses in the Wakefield area.

To register your interest in attending, sign up on Eventbrite and the Creative UK team will be in touch to confirm your place and provide full details of the event schedule.

Application deadline: 5 pm, Monday 6th June
