Cultural Leadership & Enterprise in a Changed Public Sector

Jim Beirne MBE, Chief Executive of Live Theatre, will outline how Live uses its mission and vision to continue to grow in the context of reducing public investment. Jim’s insights will encompass Live’s three social enterprises and gastropub, an online playwright course and its role as an SME incubator.

He will also explore its role in large property development, with the City Council as lender rather than grant-maker.
