C&binet (www.cabinetforum.org), a not-for-profit network created by the UK government’s Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) was launched in 2008 to foster international dialogue about the creative economy focussing on the four main themes including access to finance for creative industries, new business models for online content, developing talent and securing creative rights.
The first annual C&binet forum on Nurturing Creative Content in the Digital Age is taking place on 26 – 28 October 2009 at The Grove in Hertfordshire and will bring senior creative business leaders together with policy makers and investors to identify and support the most effective means of protecting, producing and commercialising creative work.
The opportunity to attend this forum was opened up to several members of the International Young Creative Entrepreneur (IYCE) network.
I’m happy to say that Saurabh Gupta, Founder & CEO, Phonethics from Mumbai has been selected to attend the forum next month.
Saurabh was the India Finalist of the International Young Communications Entrepreneur Award 2009 and was awarded a special commendation at the UK ceremony for his commitment to innovation and his strong sense of the global potential of his business.
