Al Quoz Creative Entrepreneurship Forum

The second edition of the Al Quoz Creative Entrepreneurship Forum, organised by Dubai Culture and Al Quoz Creative Zone as the region’s only conference dedicated to creative entrepreneurship, is again a free two-day event. While we don’t yet have the actual schedule, we know that there will be Keynotes by Natasha Sideris, Anas Bukhash and Sumaya Dabbagh; the return of the ‘Community Hub’ featuring potentially useful partners in finance, licensing, manufacturing and more; entrepreneurial skills workshops from Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation, Publicis Groupe, C3: Companies Creating Change, Think Media Labs and the Junction’s Gautam Goenka; and a programme of panel discussions, TED-style Lightning Talks, mentorship sessions, “and so much more” – notably the networking opportunities. Check the website for more details, but if you’re in the creative sector it’s definitely well worth registering.
