While it is a cliché that our most valuable resource is our people, it is undeniably true in<br />
relation to arts, creative industries and culture in general where the value of the output is<br />
directly related to the quality of ideas and excellence of execution. The skills needed for<br />
success are not just those related to the technical achievement of a product but also to the<br />

mutate as ideas and opportunities emerge.<br />
