Our World Class Courses
Our courses are being designed and delivered by the best faculty from
Building the Creative Business – a high-impact executive education course over three three-day modules (Thursday am to Saturday pm) will transform the future of creative entrepreneurial businesses that take part. It is aimed at professionals currently working in emerging creative businesses to help them take their business to the next level. In our first year there are spaces for just fifteen companies. We aim to accept two senior executives from each of these businesses, and successful applicants in this first year will benefit from a course price heavily subsidised by our initial government funding. The next BCB module starts on 17 April 2008.
New Creative Ventures – an internal MBA elective which brings together London Business School students and Masters students from University of the Arts London. The goal of this course is to understand and identify the process by which creative ideas are turned into commercial ventures in both start-up and corporate environments. The next elective starts in Autumn 2007.
