Thames
International Business School, the country’s first international
college offering UK-based programs, organized with the British
Council a two-day creative skills bootcamp under the Creative
Innovators Programme (CIP). Participants are given fresh and exciting
workshops with topics running
across the different creative industries – from design, craft,
film, animation and technology. Sessions are co-created and
facilitated by Thames International lecturers and Creative Innovators
Programme Fellows, and offered a unique opportunity to learn about
the technical, management, and business skills needed by artists and
creative entrepreneurs to thrive.
Workshops were developed with the
support and guidance of Nesta, the UK’s innovation foundation.
Thames continues to support CIP with Post Graduate scholarships for
artists and creatives called ICE or Innovation and Creative
Enterprise. Opening
