The Power of Collaboration: IGNITE + COLLABORATE

Great things happen when we work together! Exploring the power of collaboration from digital, creative and business perspectives, the latest in the IGNITE event series, will be held at The Guildhall in Salisbury on 4th April.

Led by Scrace Architects, IGNITE events are quarterly attracting a dynamic mix of decision makers and local business leaders, creative professionals and architects, getting people thinking and networking together.

Tim Scrace says, “IGNITE + COLLABORATE will be a stimulating and accessible workshop geared towards prompting collaborative thought and action.  Through a series of short punchy talks and workshops the aim is to get creative entrepreneurs talking.”

The dynamic line- up of speakers includes architects, digital experts, creative influencers, business mentors, community leaders and much more. Each speaker will share their thoughts about collaboration.

Inspired by conversation the afternoon will culminate in a creative design workshop led by talented architects and enablers.
