The Creative Blueprint
The UK’s creative industries are driven by over 73,000 micro and small enterprises (MSEs), contributing 36% of the sector’s total value*.
These businesses are the backbone of creativity and commerce, fostering innovation, growth, and employment across the nation. However, while MSEs excel in agility, customer trust, and creative brilliance, they often face challenges in operationalising their vision at scale, with productivity averaging just 60% compared to larger firms†.
Our Creative Blueprint Program is a six-month, hands-on engagement offering unparalleled direct support from an expert who has built and scaled dynamic, culturally resonant creative businesses. You’ll benefit from tailored guidance, actionable input, and proven expertise to help you align your business processes, platforms, and people with your goals. This program transforms operational challenges into competitive advantages, empowering you to build a resilient, scalable business that stays true to your creative vision.
