In this accounting year, TheArenaUK CIC has provided digital resources and opportunities to an online community of over 7,000 emerging creatives, with the aim of demystifying creative careers and providing practical advice to get started in the industry. We spoke to students currently in education through universities to share advice and feedback on their work. Building on the success of the previous year, we continued to host in-person speed mentoring events, with 5 different creative agencies based in London and Bristol and also a freelance edition with a range of independent creatives. Over 100 emerging creatives benefited from an hour of back-to-back feedback sessions with industry professionals, as well as networking opportunities across these events. Finally, our bi-annual mentoring programme successfully hosted a further two cohorts of mentees and mentors, supporting an additional 50 emerging creatives to kickstart their careers through the guidance and support of a mentor.
