XpoNorth 2022 | Current Picture and Next Steps Supporting The Creative Sector Across The Highland
The Highlands and Islands boasts a unique and sophisticated creative and cultural infrastructure supported by a diversity of place-based networks, venues and organisations. This session brings together a range of perspectives to offer a lens on their importance to local communities, how they inform and shape broader national support programmes and discuss how they contribute to the sustainability and growth of regional creative economies. There will also be a focus on how digital is enabling new ways of working, shared challenges and opportunities, cross-sector collaboration, skills shortages, talent retention and the realities of working across often remote and complex geographies.
