Igniter events to reimagine how the creative sector can emerge from the pandemic stronger, more connected and more resilient. Brand new. Open-hearted. Brave. Bold and Inspiring
Part of the ABCD plan for cultural recovery in Greater Brighton, these free sessions shout loudly how creative businesses are at the forefront of the city’s recovery.

The Igniter programme is a series of 4 online webinars:
Does Brighton Dare…?

Compassionate, creative…. and Commercial?
