Creative Republic is an independent group, made up of people who make their living in the creative industries and are passionate about representing other creative industries within Birmingham and the surrounding region.

The first Creative Republic event in Coventry lead my Helga Henry (Fierce Earth/metapod) was held earlier this week and I have to say that it is the way forward. Creatives within Coventry and Warwickshire need a proactive system of networking inspiring conversations that can lead to collaborations and guidance for business and groups within the creative industries.

Check out their website and sign up if you feel that your voice is unheard in relation to the creative culture of your city and meet others who want to make a difference.
