#THE FUTURE IS ART The power of partnership to open up tomorrow
At a time when the world faces the common problem of COVID-19, how can we overcome this unprecedented crisis and enhance the resilience and sustainability of arts and culture? This forum will be held on Tuesday, March 9 as the second one following the "# THE FUTURE IS ART Management that opens up tomorrow" held last December.
This time we will focus on "Partnerships in Arts and Culture". In the face of limited resources such as money, human resources, and time, efforts have been made to promote collaboration and strategic partnerships. During the COVID-19 pandemic, our previous efforts to strengthen cooperation provided the foundation for resilience in business continuity and restart. In addition, it has become increasingly necessary to create synergies through collaboration, such as by sharing resources and operating efficiently, and by leveraging the strengths of each company across areas and fields to increase creativity and reach. In addition, it is becoming increasingly important for various artistic fields to unite and comprehensively disseminate value. With the participation of speakers from Japan and overseas, we will discuss the issues and significance of collaboration and solidarity that have become inevitable in the field of art and culture in the midst of drastic changes in society, the universal know-how to spread and connect horizontally, and new initiatives and perspectives. Please watch it.
If you would like to watch the movie, please apply through this form by 12:00 on Tuesday, March 9, 2021.
