CultureTech Futures Series
The New England North West region is building capability and opportunities in the fast-growing creative, digital media and CultureTech space.
The UNE SRI will deliver the 2022 CultureTech Futures Series in collaboration with partners and communities in Armidale, Tamworth, Narrabri and Moree. This series will promote connections, share information and grow aspirations for building strong regional futures.
The New England North West boasts an engaged cultural community, and a growing number of creative industries embracing the opportunities of CultureTech, while enhancing the social and cultural vibrancy and economic prosperity of the region.
The UNE SRI is nurturing the emerging NENW creative digital media industry, building capability and business opportunities through the Creative and CultureTech Futures Series program.
The Creative Digital Media Club is a flagship project for the program. Delivered in partnership with UNE SRI founder and digital creative Brendan Mooney, the six month pilot project brings together a group of aspiring creatives focused on the digital creative industries. Examples of these industries are games designer, animation, audio and film. The goal is to create a thriving community of digital creatives and kickstart this industry in the New England area.
