Northern Creatives™ is a new T-Shirts and Suits® project in partnership with NorthernNet™ to help creative enterprises to innovate and make profitable collaborations across the three regions of the North of England.

All creative businesses in the North East, Yorkshire and the North West regions are welcome to join the Northern Creatives network.

David Parrish from the T-Shirts and Suits Creative Enterprise Network™ is working in partnership with NorthernNet to organise events to encourage innovation and collaborations between Northern creative enterprises.

Events will help connect creative companies in Yorkshire with potential partners in the North West. These free workshops will discuss the business issues involved in creating profitable collaborations and also provide networking opportunities. The first dual-location interactive events will link businesses in Yorkshire and the North West using the Media Access Bureaus (MABs) of the NorthernNet high-speed telecommunication infrastructure located in Leeds, Liverpool, Sheffield, and MediaCityUK in Salford.

Creative businesses in the north of England can benefit by innovating and collaborating across the northern regions, becoming more competitive at a time when the BBC is moving to MediaCity UK in Salford and the Northern Way Growth Fund has invested £9.4m in NorthernNet, a high speed telecommunications infrastructure offering reliable symmetric network of 100Mbs upgradeable to 1 Gbps.

This new NorthernNet infrastructure includes new Media Access Bureaus (MABs) in cities across the northern regions and has been designed to enable collaboration across the North West, Yorkshire and the North East.

For more information about NorthernNet, including the locations of MABs throughout the North, see: www.northernnet.co.uk

There's never been a better time for creative enterprises across the North of England to find suitable collaborators and win new business.

Comment by Les Selby on March 12, 2010 at 11:13am: Calls for Collaboration (March 2010 Part 4): Freelance Adobe Flex Developer
Alba Associates has been approached by a North Manchester based business looking for Freelancers to address the following request / calls for collaborations.

Call for Collaboration No 4
We urgently require an experienced Adobe FLEX developer to work with us on the development of a new application for distribution via CD-Rom and the web. The application will be linked to the internet for updates, new languages etc. but the user data will be stored locally on the pc. We're based in north Manchester, and a local developer would be preferable, but remote working would be possible. Contract can be either freelance or employed. Please send previous examples of work and experience.
The business is looking for an individual freelance person....who is based in the North West of England...who can work in their office. They are not looking to hear from businesses who are specialist in this area of work or from freelance from outside the geographical area......thanks

Please note that there are no fees attached to arrangements for any introductions to meet the business. Alba Associates hold no other information on the business...and will forward interested freelancers business profile and arrange for introductions.

To respond simply email me les.selby@albaassoc.com for a business profile, and once completed will be sent directed to the business concerned.

Comment by Carol Ryder on October 2, 2009 at 7:47pm: Hello everyone,

Have just added a page on to the site; I'm a freelance artist & illustrator in the area looking for commissions, commercial opportunities and places to exhibit my work.

I'm also looking for someone to help me design and build a simple(?) web site to promote my illustration and texile art work online.

Can anyone help with either of these ventures?

Carol.
