Workshop participants were welcomed by Senior Lecturer in American Studies, Professor Ian Scott, before learning about the University’s Business Engagement Support Team, Aspect and Creative Manchester.
Case studies were then delivered by innovative cultural leaders from organisations with whom Creative Manchester is partnered – CEO of Manchester Camerata Bob Riley and two members of Carcanet Press, MD Michael Schmidt and Associate Publisher John McAuliffe.
Later in the workshop, participants had the opportunity to contribute to the discussion in facilitated breakout rooms.
