Event overview:

Some of the world’s leading digital entertainment experts are on the hunt for innovative UK digital projects and creative thinkers over the next few weeks, to take part in this year’s X Media Lab event to be held at The Assembly Rooms in Bath and Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios on March 16th, 17th and 18th.

The experts will be speaking at a one day conference on March 16th, offering a rare insight into the types of technologies and ideas currently exciting the global digital entertainment industry.

This is a great opportunity for any UK start-up, entrepreneur or established digital team to hear fantastic speakers who are leaders in their field. It is also a rare opportunity to submit ideas and get millions of pounds worth of free business and technology mentoring from the brains behind digital scenes in movies such as Minority Report, Inception, Avatar and Pirates of the Caribbean. The mentors also have years of experience in interactive advertising for major brands, mobile applications and music tracks and websites.

Jeff Gomez, father of transmedia, Ralph Simon, founder of mobile entertainment and Dale Herigstad, winner of four Emmy Awards are just some of the star-studded list of names heading to Bath in March.

The Conference day is followed by the weekend "Lab" where carefully selected companies and project teams will be mentored one-on-one at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios in Box.

Tickets for the conference are available to Creative Bath members at the discounted price of £95, and can be booked online here.

Entrepreneurs and creative businesses can submit their project ideas for the lab via an online form.
