Arts & Business creates new Advisory Council

Hook

Arts & Business says ...

"We are keen to apply the very best minds to set the pace for innovation and enterprise within the cultural sector.  There were many friends of Arts & Business who wanted to respond to the changing economic and political environment and work more actively and formally alongside us.  The group will show the way in cultural entrepreneurship, offering practical and clear-sighted policies to drive the ambition of our sector within their respective networks.
This is a significant time for both business and culture. This group will have the energy and desire to sustain Arts & Business’ position as the one-stop shop to bring further wealth and success to our commercial and cultural partners."

Colin Tweedy, Chief Executive of Arts & Business 


"Supporting the arts is something the private sector can be proud of, and never more so than in a recession. This group will unite the best cultural and commercial thinking to pinpoint how the UK’s arts sector can face current and future challenges. We all want our arts funding ecology to remain the envy of the world."
Richard Sambrook, Director of Global News at the BBC and Chair of the Advisory Council 

 

From the doyennes of the advertising industry, to business leaders, research gurus, philanthropists, leading journalists and cultural thinkers - the members of the newly formed Arts & Business Advisory Council will add their expertise and commercial know-how to strengthen the current health of partnerships between culture and the private sector.
