The globally renowned REMIX Academy Summit returns to the Sunshine Coast as a part of Horizon Festival with an incredible line-up of speakers.
REMIX Academy Summits bring together thought leaders from across different industries to tackle the big ideas shaping the future of the creative industries and the creative economy.
This special summit at USC Sunshine Coast on Friday, September 1, has been developed to explore the ingredients needed to nurture creative places and communities.
The one-day summit invites the national and international experts to provide insights on how the arts can influence and shape urban development projects, how we think about holistic place-making and the infrastructure of cities, whether the growth of a creative city is largely organic or whether it can be engineered through policy and investment and how we balance top down with community empowerment and grassroots cultural activity.
