NordMatch conference: Creative Economy put into practice

NordMatch is a Nordic and Baltic network meeting gathering professionals already working with, or interested in, activities where art and culture meet other sectors of society. Last year over 150 participants met in Tallinn for two days, exchanging experiences and refining project ideas.

This time we will meet in Tampere, Finland  30-31 January 2014 under the theme Creative economy put into practice – a two day encounter with professionals facilitating culture.

NordMatch 2014 will include:

* Case presentations from Nordic and Baltic countries on interesting cooperations 
* Advisory rings where project ideas are refined 
* Working groups on how to pitch an idea
* Pitching ideas for a panel with representatives for financing bodies 
* Study visits
* Network meetings
* Party for mingle and match

We are happy to cooperate with Creativity World Forum, the world’s largest annual Creative Economy Conference, next year arranged by the City of Tampere and Ice Entertainment Oy 30-31 January 2014. Participants from NordMatch and Creativity World Forum will meet during study visits.

We are now in the process of finding inspiring speakers for case presentations from all Nordic and Baltic countries. Let us know who you want to hear at NordMatch in 2014! http://tinyurl.com/NordMatch2014
