London Transmedia Fest 2012 is powered by DMIC – a digital media incubation project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund to help SMEs across London to grow and expand. The project is being led by Ravensbourne with support from matched funds from delivery partners: the Royal Borough of Greenwich, Four Corners Film and the European Regional Development Fund.
Chris Thompson, Senior Adviser for Enterprise and Innovation at Ravensbourne, which is leading the DMIC project, said: “London Transmedia Fest 2012 is a ‘must-attend’ event for creative and digital professionals wanting to play a part in shaping the future of their industry. There are some highly-regarded industry experts delivering the sessions, so we are urging that people apply early to avoid disappointment.”
