South West Design Forum and Plymouth Media-Partnership have collaborated with Silverstream TV and the University of Plymouth to produce an informative and fast paced web streamed panel discussion on the subject of ‘Planning for Growth for both Design and Media Businesses’.

The discussion is available in bite-size chunks on the topics of:-

Business values
Setting up
Support
Roles & Responsibilities
Generating business

The distinguished panel of speakers have a combined wealth of experience surrounding the topic which was recorded by Silverstream TV at the University of Plymouth. The panel members are Emma Collins from Gallery, Roger Proctor from Proctor & Stevenson, Steve Kyffin from Bluestone 360, Chris Worrell from Foot Anstey, Kathryn Hughes from the South West Design Programme, Martyn King from Fuel Communications and Eleanor Butland from the Formation Zone.

The panelists each give a fascinating insight into running a design or media business and planning for growth, offering top tips on management and development from a variety of perspectives.

Roger Proctor, Chairman of South West Design Forum and one of the panelists said “This is a great way of sharing knowledge across the sector and a chance for new businesses to gain from the experience of others. Web streaming certain events addresses the physical challenges of bringing people together from across the region which has to be positive in terms of the environment and it saves valuable business time for delegates by eliminating the need to travel.”
