Culture Business. Arts Sponsorship Experts meet in Paris

Culture Business, the international meeting point for arts sponsorship professionals, is hosting its second event, on 10 December 2009 at the Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine in Paris. What is Culture Business for ? 200 professionals from all over Europe and the United States formed the first international network of sponsorship and culture experts. CultureBusiness was a meeting point between cultural institutions and sponsoring companies sharing their expectations and constructing a new dialogue based on listening to and respecting each other's values.

Delegates enjoyed the international dimension of the forum and the quality and diversity of presentations, including major cultural and sponsorship organisations like the Royal Opera House, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and Tate in London, the Palais de Tokyo and Crédit Agricole in Paris and BMW in Munich. What is this year's theme? This year, Corporate Social Responsibility will be discussed, exploring how funders are becoming more socially responsible in the current climate. We want to ensure that every moment of the conference is an opportunity to gain a better understanding of fundraising exchange ideas and network. We hope you will be inspired by the discussions and presentations but also leave with practical solutions to help you develop your projects.

This year, more than ever before, we need to find ways of making a difference to our organisations. CultureBusiness is dedicated to helping you achieve this.
