Spot-on Overijssel

Curious about funding opportunities but not sure where to start? The Creative Industries Fund NL is coming to Enschede to guide you through the world of grants and other support. On Thursday 2 October from 16:00 to 18:00, we're organising a Spot-on event at Creatieve Broedplaats Enschede.

Whether you're just starting out or have been active for a while as a maker, designer or cultural organisation in Overijssel – this is your chance to meet financiers, gain practical tips and discover which grants and programmes suit you.

Programme

From 15:45 you're welcome to arrive and indicate which part of the programme you'd like to follow. You can choose from:

  • Workshop 'fair practice budgeting' (16:00 - 17:00) | Learn all about the Fair Practice Code and how to use it strategically in your applications. After the workshop you can join the networking reception or participate in the speed dates.
  • Speed dates (16:00 - 17:30) | Talk directly with staff from the Creative Industries Fund NL and other supporting organisations such as De Sektor, Cultuurfonds Overijssel, Cross-TIC, Cultuurregio and the municipality of Enschede (Handgeldloket and Cultural Activities) . Ask all your questions about grants and connect with the right people.

We'll conclude with a networking reception where you can continue chatting with all the organisations over drinks and snacks.
