International Women's Day Creative Cuppa: Who's afraid of innovation? In partnership with Creative Collective and Media Cymru.

What is Creative Cuppa?

Creative Cuppa is a monthly gathering for artists, businesses and creative freelancers hosted by Creative Cardiff. These informal events will bring Cardiff's creative community together for the all-important three Cs - connection, creativity and caffeine.

Join us for a chance to meet, connect and learn from other creatives, whether you're just starting out or have been working in the industry for decades.

March Creative Cuppa: Who's afraid of innovation?

For March’s Creative Cuppa, we’re doing something slightly different.

Friday 8 March is International Women’s Day, and this year the theme is ‘Innovation and Technology’. What better opportunity is there to showcase some of the incredible innovation happening in Cardiff’s women-led creative companies? So, this month we’re partnering with Creative Collective and Media Cymru to do exactly that.

Join us at BBC Cymru Central Square to hear from a panel of bright and brilliant women working in the creative sector who’ll be sharing their thoughts on what innovation means to them, and how they approached embedding research and development into their practice. We’ll explore case studies, share best practice and discuss how to overcome barriers to implementing new ideas and processes in your business. There will also be an opportunity to learn about Media Cymru’s Innovation Pipeline Seed Fund which is currently open for applications.

Book your place.
