Creative pro manchester launched by RMS
Today sees the launch of creative pro manchester, a
new initiative
conceived to connect the local financial and professional sector with
the digital, creative and media sector in the city. We're delighted to
be one of the founding members of the group - alongside first class
Manchester professionals.
Founders include Kirsty Shenton (DWF), Peter
Davies (RMS), Lauren Liles (Montpelier),
David Hunt (Creative Lynx) and
Steve Kuncewicz (Halliwells). Our group will be
providing our target
audience with a range of events throughout 2010.The first in this
series is a workshop for small digital agencies held by Peter Rush, The
Pitch Doctor, to help them boost their conversion rate in pitch
scenarios. This free to attend event takes place at Innospace on 25 May.
We
back the comments of John Ashcroft, CEO of
pro manchester, who said: "Our objectives are to raise awareness,
understanding and boost business links between the two sectors.
"Manchester
talent excels in both sectors and we're happy to take a lead in helping
them connect.
"This
group will help digital, creative and media companies equip themselves
with the necessary business and financial skills to generate growth.
Our member professional and financial firms will learn how to compete
in the new digital economy."
