The 6th and final episode of this season of the ASSEMBLY podcast series sees outgoing BASA Chairman, Charmaine Soobramoney, facilitating a conversation with Marcus Desando (Arts & Culture Trust) and Tamara Guhrs (Flying House) about ecosystem building and collective value creation through strengths mapping and systematic collaboration.
The cultural sector requires agile and relevant business models to survive. Host, Mandie van der Spuy, chats to editor/writer/poet Kojo Baffoe and Standard Bank Young Artist (2020) Jefferson Tshabalala about the impact of digitisation, the unique structure of the sector and the current challenges of the South African funding landscape.
The roles of creatives and marketers aren’t always separate. Both are part of the value chain, unique and different, but still connected in touching the hearts of consumers. This conversation looks at the ways in which these two seemingly disparate groups can find synergy.
Charmaine Soobramoney (BASA Chair) is joined by Unathi Malunga (SASFED) and Elroy Bell (DALRO) to talk about INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IN A DIGITAL AGE.
This conversation explores various IP issues ranging from what creatives’ rights are, how to protect these rights and stop exploitation, how to earn from your IP and more.
This, third episode, of the ASSEMBLY Podcast Series sees Business and Arts South Africa (BASA) CEO, Ashraf Johaardien, facilitating a Q&A with Dr Andrea Rurale (Milan, Italy), on the social impact of the arts, the degree to which the creative sector and cultural institutions have (or have not) been agile, responsive or resilient, in terms of COVID-19 challenges, and the future of the creative economy at this point in time.
