Creative: SPICI alongside young talents to build the future of the cultural and creative industry

Creative - Metropolitan Festival of Youth Cultures, an initiative promoted by the Metropolitan City of Naples, in collaboration with the San Carlo Theatre Foundation, the Youth Observatory of the Department of Social Sciences of the University Federico II and the Officine San Carlo, is much more than a festival: it is a platform that connects young talents, cultural enterprises, and institutions to create a dynamic and inclusive cultural ecosystem. SPICI is pleased to be a partner in this initiative, contributing its expertise to the development of new skills in the cultural and creative sector. 

SPICI's Role: Creative Lab Start Up

Among the various workshops offered by the Festival, SPICI will manage the Creative Lab Start Up, an intensive training course aimed at introducing participants to the world of Business Culture and Design Thinking. The workshop, active from January to March 2025, includes: 

• 40 hours of training comprising lectures, practical workshops, and masterclasses. 

• Focus on innovation and creativity: participants will develop key skills to design innovative solutions, focusing on user needs and the potential of digital technologies. 

• Pitch Startup Day: a concluding event where participants will present their entrepreneurial ideas to an audience of experts and investors.

A Complete Ecosystem for Creativity

Creative is not limited to training. Among other scheduled activities: 

• Creative Open Stage, a series of events where young talents can perform and showcase their creations. 

• Masterclasses with leading professionals from the cultural and creative industry, such as Prime Video, SKY, Netflix, and Cinecittà. 

• Networking and professional opportunities: participants can connect with companies and creatives, exchanging ideas and collaborating on new projects.
