Creative Clusters Summer School

03 June 2009 

Entrepreneurship, Workspace and the Local Creative Economy

As in the 1980s, the economy that emerges from this recession will look very different to the economy that went into it. Once again, the places that engage now with emerging sectors will recover fastest. Are you ready to provide the support and infrastructure that will be needed?

Drawing on one of the great regeneration success stories of the last twenty years, the Creative Clusters SummerSchool offers well-tested solutions and practical tools to support recovery:

    Four days of intensive up-skilling delivered by workspace chief executives, senior regeneration directors and leading creative industry consultants.

    Taking place in some of the UK’s most successful workspaces: the Workstation/Showroom complex in Sheffield, Dean Clough, Halifax, The Media Centre, Huddersfield and Digital Media Centre, Barnsley.

    Practical solutions for beating the recession.
