Thinking Digital is an annual gathering of innovators, creatives, thinkers and entrepreneurs where they can share insights, ideas, experiences and stories that have the power to shape the future.

Creative and innovative young thinkers and entrepreneurs are being offered the opportunity to attend the event free of charge as honoured guests of the inaugural Thinking Digital Manchester. A minimum of 25 places are being provided for successful applicants to the Emerging Talent Fund as part of the conference.

The event gives attendees a choice of creative and business oriented workshops to attend on 2 November taking place at selected locations around central Manchester and is followed by a full day of inspiring talks from game-changing speakers on Tuesday 3 November at HOME

To apply, you must be able to make your case to the Thinking Digital panel of judges that you’ve got what it takes to make the most of the new ideas and networking opportunities that attending the event will create. You will need to submit your application in writing and a short video of 60 seconds or less, telling your ideas, aspirations and ambitions for the future.

A judging team made up of representatives from Thinking Digital and their event partners will assess the entries. The successful applicants will receive a pass free of charge to the events and workshops, and a limited number of travel and accommodation bursaries will also be available for successful applicants outside the Greater Manchester area.

Selected introductions to career opportunities will also be made available to emerging talents as appropriate.

To apply for the Emerging Talent Fund please visit the website and apply by Friday 2 October.
