Join us for our fourth event of our Creative Economy Series hosted by Phil Hughes: The inevitable Death of Gate Keepers and what it Means for the Creator Economy.
The rise of social platforms has played a pivotal role in reshaping the landscape of content and product creation. Our experts will delve into the boom of the creator economy, looking at the evolution of social media and what the next phase may hold for creators in terms of opportunity, funding and distribution.
The death of gatekeepers is characterised by a shift in power from centralised authorities to individual creators and users. Social platforms have played a pivotal role in this transformation, empowering individuals to share their voices, creativity, and expertise on a global scale and social commerce is changing the game again. These individuals own their audience, platforms and rights and it is creating a shift in what investment into many start-ups looks like.
Consumer laws in the UK are undergoing a revolution in 2024 with the implementation of the new Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Bill expected before the end of this year.
The DMCC bill will give the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) strong new powers to unliterally impose potentially huge fines of up to 10% of global turnover for breaches of consumer law.
We're focusing on some of the key areas that are undergoing significant change, and in our next webinar, we will be focusing on fake reviews – which will be a ‘banned practice’ under the DMCC Bill, joining the list of 31 banned practices under the existing law.
With the CMA’s new fining powers, businesses need to be aware of the new rules and how to comply with them. We will look at some useful examples and consider the position under the CAP Code, as well as under the new law. As always, we’ll focus on solutions and allow time to answer your questions.
Innovation has always been an engine of success for businesses. However, coming up with new and different ideas can be challenging. The best ideas require creativity, experimentation and diversity of representation and thought, they require STEAM power.
Great inventors and innovators have consistently shown an appreciation for the arts, elevating their creations to masterpieces from Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs. Join us on 18th June at Lewis Silkin’s London office where we talk to three Changemakers, creating change and challenging how we think about business today, on how by embracing the intersection of Science and Art, putting the Arts into STEM, we can unlock a wealth of STEAM powered possibilities for the future of business.
