INCUBATOR® is a new trade event concept. It is designed to stimulate commerce within the creative industries and help Australian creative professionals get ready to take full advantage of the future National Broadband Network. The launch event focuses on film and music, and engages advertising, media and creative production services.

INCUBATOR is Australia’s first marketplace for creating, co-producing, buying, selling, financing, licensing, distributing and marketing creative properties for all outlets and media platforms.

It will showcase the ‘work’ and the ‘people’ from creative industries to encourage open innovation within the creative industries and with small businesses working in sectors like retail, sporting, tourism, hospitality, finance, FMCG and manufacturing who are interested in finding new creative suppliers and new creative properties to leverage in delivering their offering and marketing thereof.

INCUBATOR will foster trade partnerships, niche commercial collaborations and new business opportunities. The

inaugural INCUBATOR will be the sum of two specialist events called Film Incubator and Music Incubator. Both will work to synchronise opportunities within and between the film and music industries for their respective benefit. Small business brands interested in innovative new tactics will be invited and encouraged to ‘get involved’.

PIIP® is a not-for-profit charitable institution providing group training solutions to trainees, apprentices and employers in the creative industries. It delivers capacity building programs, like INCUBATOR, to stimulate creative commerce and bolster the uptake of Australian Apprentices in the creative industries.
