Bolton Digital & Creative Collective :  July 2017

Tuesday 18th July 2017 marked the official launch of the Bolton Creative and Digital Collective. The event attracted over 30 industry relevant people who came along to be part of bringing the emerging creative and digital sector in Bolton and the surrounding areas together.

We welcomed a range of people from different backgrounds all from within the Digital, Creative or Arts industry sector.
Hosted at the stunning Neo Gallery, guests were impressed as they viewed collections of art whilst coming together and networking with likeminded individuals.

It was fantastic to see people coming together and it was safe to say that there was a real buzz and a feeling of excitement in the room for where this group could potentially go.

Talks were given by Matt Tomkin of Tao Digital Marketing, who was the man behind the idea for the collective. He introduced the group, his background and what the plans were for building on existing foundations of a successful industry within Bolton.

Matt Fawthrop of The Business Growth Hub, who talked the attendees through what and how they could help local businesses with digital skills.

Lorraine Povah of Bolton Council, ran through the developments and initiatives the council have for the Digital and Creative sectors within the town. Who knew there were more than 2000 registered digital and creative businesses registered in Bolton.

We now invite your thoughts on how we can improve the group and the types of talks you would like to see. If you would like to give a talk about a relevant industry topic then please do get in contact with us and we can look to book you a speaker slot at the next event.
