Stage 1 Planning and Preparation
In this stage, you establish the CTL foundation by exploring themes, selecting bootcamp formats, building a coordination team, mobilizing the ecosystem, securing vendors, and implementing effective communication strategies to ensure a successful launch.
Stage 2 Operations
In Stage 2, practicality takes the lead. The CTL establishes its online presence on www.creativetlab.com, creates a landing page, and readies itself to receive applications, ensuring a seamless operational framework.
Stage 3
This stage focuses on the bootcamp which is a 100-hour bootcamp bridges creatives and developers, catalyzing entrepreneurship, partnerships, ecosystem growth, and innovation exposure.
Stage 4 Post-bootcamp Activities - Incubation
During the concluding phase, you must select a pivotal strategic institution incubator for CTL 2.0, which can leverage sector expertise, foster startup growth, facilitate connections, and provide customized support to ensure lasting impact and development.
Who can participate?
Anyone! CTL creates a space for artists, technologists, entrepreneurs, investors, influencers and civic leaders, to collaborate, experiment, and prototype.
How do i implement one? What type of ressources is required?
You can implement a CTL with: (i) a motivated facilitator, (ii) a diverse team with a common objective/goal, and (iii) a dedicated space with good internet connection. From there, you can tap into your existing network to pull in experts and collaborators. A forthcoming guide will be published in early 2022 to provide more details. Stay tuned!
What are the benefits of the creative tech lab?
Implementing the CTL will expose creative artists to new technologies that will enhance the competitiveness of their creative business model through technological adoption. These shifts in perception can inspire the development of new creative outputs that drive revenue and growth opportunities.
