REMIX Summit - Technology | Culture | Entrepreneurship

  • culture | technology | entrepreneurship

    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.

    Created by CultureLabel.com, the inaugural event is sponsored by Google, Porsche Design and Eventbrite.com. We are being kindly hosted by Bloomberg, London who are also our Media Partner. REMIX will feature leading speakers from across business, technology and culture. These include:

    • Ed Vaizey, Minister of Culture
    • Steve Crossan, Head of Google Cultural Institute
    • David Kershaw, Managing Director, M&C Saatchi
    • Anna Higgs, Head of Film4.0
    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.

    REMIX has been created by the cultural entrepreneurs behind CultureLabel.com – Peter Tullin, Simon Cronshaw and Florian Wupperfeld. CultureLabel.com is an online marketplace for art, accessories, homeware and gifts, made up of over 600 leading global culture institutions such as the Tate, British Museum, Château de Versailles, Warhol Estate, New Museum NYC, Saatchi Gallery and V&A.
