Re:Create GrowthCamp is the next evolution of Re:Create, which has supported more than 200 creative businesses across London and Essex, run by a team that knows the creative industries first-hand.
Re:Create GrowthCamp gives creative businesses 12 weeks of practical support from a business mentor and a small group of peers. Programme participants build a steadier client pipeline, grow with confidence, and learn alongside people who understand the challenges.
What's included?
Five hours of one-to-one mentoring
With a business mentor who knows your corner of the creative industries, matched to your needs and scheduled flexibly across the twelve weeks at times that suit you.
In-person and online workshops
Group sessions of two to three hours, structured around learning and discussion, delivered mostly in person at London’s Somerset House by our expert network.
A cohort of peers who get it
Up to eleven other creative founders facing the same questions, plus a network and support system that outlasts the programme.
Why Re:Create GrowthCamp?
Cohort members work alongside a small group of creative founders who are navigating the same challenges. They’re matched with a business mentor who understands their corner of the industry, ensuring the advice is relevant from the outset, rather than generic theory they have to interpret and translate for themselves.
