DESCRIPTION:An International Perspective – Live Events\, Production & Creative Industries Technology \nThe first in-Africa Live Tech Edu Summit comes to South Africa and take place on the 12 September 2023 at the Holiday Inn Johannesburg Sunnyside Park (Formerly Sunnyside Park Hotel). \nPresenting at the summit is the UK’s Academy of Live Technology – specialists in live events and creative industries degrees\, undergraduate and postgraduate qualifications\, short courses\, and bespoke training programmes. \nThe objectives of the Live Tech Edu Summit include: \n\nThe UK based Academy of Live Technology sharing their experiences and insights regarding developments in international Live Events and Creative Industries.\nPlans in place on the upgrading and registration of Live Events qualifications in South Africa from Level 4 up to Level 8.\nInterest and participation of the UK based Academy of Live Technology (formerly Backstage Academy) in the South African space.\n\nStrategic and financial support of the National Department of Sports Arts Culture Department has made it possible for the development (set-up) of the SA Academy for Live Technology. To be trained are the youth and next generation in the Live Events\, Technical and Production Services Industries (ETPSI) in South Africa and beyond. \nLive events and production services is crucial to bringing ideas to life. Such ideas could be for live events\, theatre\, broadcasting\, sports events\, cruise ship entertainment\, TV and film production\, government communication\, even gaming. \n“Opportunities of how – and what – you’re bringing to life are rapidly changing. Our industry is growing and evolving. Things like automation and technology are reinventing production as we know it\, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. But the future is only as bright as the talent.” Says Freddie Nyathela – president of the South African Roadies Association (SARA). \nNyathela adds\, “As an industry\, we are often used to being behind the scenes\, but if we don’t put a spotlight on production\, how can we show that these kinds of careers exist to young people? Most of the jobs that keep the industry going are not part of common knowledge at all\, resulting in an increasing gap between awareness and opportunity. Nevertheless\, we have a responsibility to put our industry in front of young people and shout about all the opportunities there are. We need to work harder to dispel the myths and misconceptions around the validity of careers in our industry and lift the lid on how we create those extraordinary moments so many of us live for.” \nThe Live Tech Edu Summit is about shaping the future through education\, innovation\, collaboration and contributing to education that transform lives and status quo.
