Creative Advantage

Join us on October 3, 2024 at La Trobe University Bendigo, for Creative Advantage on October 3, 2024, a dynamic one-day event designed to connect the four cohorts of Emporium Creative Hub’s Incubator Program (2020-2024) with regional industry leaders. This event fosters collaboration and growth between creative graduates and local businesses, offering valuable insights into leadership, commercial strategy, and design thinking.

For graduates, this is a chance to recharge and refocus, delving into how to sell your services to large organisations while anchoring your mindset in core values. Learn from the successes and challenges of your peers, gain practical problem-solving skills, and celebrate the power of creative enterprise.

For industry leaders, this event presents an opportunity to meet the region's most innovative creative talent and explore how creative services can drive your business forward. Discover the diverse expertise that local creatives can offer to enhance your reach, reduce inefficiencies, and give your business a unique edge. Hear directly from fellow industry professionals about how they've successfully integrated creative services into their strategies.

Key sessions like "Good to Great" and "How to Solve Almost Any Problem" delivered by Sertori Consulting and Minds at Work will equip both creatives and businesses with actionable tools and fresh perspectives on leadership and innovation. The day wraps up with networking drinks, live music, and an exhibition of creative works, providing space for new collaborations to spark.
