Emerging Technologies & Digital Adoption
Unlock the power of emerging and immersive technologies to grow your creative business.
This intensive programme combines a 3-hour live Emerging Technologies masterclass with three hours of small-group mentorship, designed specifically for creative-tech SMEs ready to explore AR, VR, MR, virtual production, motion capture and immersive projection spaces.
Led by industry practitioners and cross-border innovators, participants will gain real-world insight into cutting-edge tools, platforms and workflows — and, crucially, how to adopt them strategically inside their own organisations.
Through case-study showcases, peer-to-peer clinics and guided mentoring, you’ll develop a clear, de-risked technology adoption plan aligned to your growth goals, funding readiness and IP strategy.
Format:
- 3-hour online masterclass
- 3 hours of facilitated group mentorship
- 10–12 participants for high-impact discussion
