Description
REMIX is a new global summit for business, technology and culture. A forum where creative leaders from different sectors can exchange insights, ideas and work together towards common goals.

What is REMIX? We have a broad awareness of the centrality of culture and creativity to vibrant, livable communities; of the rich interplay between creative industries, entertainment and the arts; of the central role that the arts can play in building and maintaining powerful communities and brands; and in the critical role played by new technologies in ensuring culture reaches new audiences and conversely the cultural industries role as a content creator.
But, how can we work better together? Like any other industry, the culture industry relies on numerous economic factors and partners to sustain its economic growth and develop and sustain audiences.
Spotting opportunities or challenges ahead of time is crucial for cultural entrepreneurs in order to reach their goals.
REMIX explores the crossroads of culture, business and technology, of heritage and innovation. It offers culture partners insights on new business opportunities and it links brands and technologists with the key players in the cultural and creative industries. We look forward to seeing you there for a unique day.
