In this live no-cost online session, key partners from industry and the Combined Authority and Department for International Trade will discuss the implications of Covid on new ways of working in the computer games and animation and visual FX industry.
Were the changes starting to happen pre-Covid? Are things working as effectively as they might have been?Are staff more productive? What about staff mental health and well-being? Will the sector now change forever and what are the implications for regional growth in this sector and the opportunities internationally? Finally we will consider what makes this sector so special in the region and what will the future look like.
