We launched the Creative Brisbane Collab! We have been working on it for a couple of years with Barton Green from The Committee for Brisbane @creativebrisbane Brisbane’s corporate and creative leaders have joined forces to launch the Creative Brisbane Collab., an Australian-first partnership that unites the two sectors in a powerful, singular voice.
The ground-breaking collaboration champions the value and impact of Brisbane’s creative industries, unveiling its first priority projects today. The Creative Brisbane Collab. intends to be a primary stakeholder consulted on the arts and cultural program – and legacy planning – for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. It will advocate for a strong artistic and cultural program to enrich the Games, spotlighting the city’s and State’s exceptional talent. Additionally, it will investigate the development of a Creativity Index to measure and report on Brisbane’s aspirations to be a global city of creativity. Additionally, arts and culture career pathways for young people will be explored through a research-led policy development project.
We have been well supported by our Governor Her Excellency the Honourable Dr Jeannette Young AC PSM Governor of Queensland who spoke at the Launch. Also lovely support from Cr. Vicki Howard who was there on behalf of BBC and spoke so well about all the exciting events and initiatives happening.
The Creative Brisbane Collab.’s 85-strong membership is drawn from 70 companies including major arts organisations spanning theatre, opera, music, dance and festivals; creative industries including fashion, architecture and landscape architecture, research, gaming and software; and corporate entities across business, finance, telecommunications, engineering, recruitment and IT.
