Creative and digital industries

In September 2015 The University of Manchester Business Engagement Support Team hosted a conference and exhibition at MediaCityUK to support innovation and collaboration in the creative and digital technology sector.

Our Creative and Digital Industries event featured sessions on current challenges, funding opportunities and future skills in the sector. As well as insight from industry experts and representatives from Innovate UK and the Manchester Business Growth Hub, the day provided an overview of work the University is doing with the creative industries.

The programme included case studies of projects with industry partners from the sector and an interactive showcase exhibiting innovative products and technologies from across our Faculties of Humanities and Engineering and Physical Sciences.
