S.Y.N.C.
We delivered our flagship creative leadership programme SYNC (Skills.Youth.Network.Create) in May 2024. We supported and trained 30 young creatives from the 4 growth boroughs (Newham, Hackney, Tower Hamlets & Waltham Forest), in East London, on a holistic journey in developing their creative businesses and entrepreneurial adventures!
Funded and supported by Foundation for Future London and Westfield Creative Fund, we delivered over 60 free workshops, panel talks and sessions by various inspiring industry professionals, experts and creative business owners and set up a showcase of the diverse talent of the cohort.
It was a an incredible opportunity to network with peers, like-minded individuals, connect with local creatives/businesses, and most importantly, to celebrate our young creatives' achievements!

“SYNC Creatives provides not only creative support but also invaluable mentorship and guidance for artists looking to navigate the complex world of art entrepreneurship. With their expertise and support, they empower artists to realize their full potential and turn their passion into a successful business venture. ”
“I’m so grateful to have been a part of something I never thought I could have stuck out for 6 weeks. I’ve been finding it hard post art degree to find the confidence to be a creative and own it and sync really helped me find that again. ”
“Engaging with SYNC Creatives has been an enriching journey, marked by professionalism and innovation at every step. From insightful workshops to dynamic networking opportunities, SYNC Creatives offers an invaluable space for growth and connection within the creative community. I wholeheartedly recommend SYNC Creatives to any individual or organisation seeking to ignite their creative spark and thrive in an environment of boundless possibility.”
