SUMMARY:CreaTech Freelancer Forum: Wolverhampton
DESCRIPTION:Calling all West Midlands freelancers and micro-businesses working in creative technology to join this forum. \n\n\n\n\nWhat is the CreaTech Freelancer Forum? \nThis is part of a series of four free industry gatherings for freelancers and micro-businesses working in creative technology across the West Midlands. Run through the CreaTech Frontiers programme and delivered by University of Warwick and sector lead Amy Dalton-Hardy\, it exists to do something straightforward: bring the sector together. \nThis is not a skills programme\, a funding workshop\, or an application clinic. It’s a space for creative tech freelancers to meet\, think\, and make connections – across the whole region\, not just the city centres – and to shape what that looks like together. \nWho is it for? \nIf you work as a freelancer or micro-business at the intersection of creative practice and technology – wherever that sits for you – this is for you. \nThat might mean you work in games\, immersive tech\, digital arts\, creative AI\, tech-enabled live performance\, motion capture\, spatial design\, or somewhere in between. The common thread is that you’re doing it independently\, in the West Midlands\, and you’d benefit from knowing more people who are doing it too. \nCreaTech Frontiers cohort members are warmly welcome. So is everyone else.
