The Department of Commerce has designated the month of March as Creative and Nighttime Economy Month in Philadelphia. We are dedicated to supporting Philadelphia creatives through entrepreneurial education while promoting our growth in the arts, culture, and creative industries. Join the Department of Commerce, Creative Philadelphia, and partner organizations throughout the month for insightful discussions featuring industry leaders and specialists on topics that help creatives start, operate, and grow their businesses in Philadelphia.
Join us for The Business of Technology, Gaming & Innovation, an insightful panel discussion convening leaders across software, gaming, R&D, toys and games, biotech, and industrial design to explore the business side of innovation, funding pathways, commercialization, talent pipelines, and resources that support creative tech ventures at every stage.
This session will examine how Philadelphia can position itself as a hub for creative technology within neighborhood commercial corridors, innovation districts, or cross-sector collaboration that bridges creativity and science.
What to Expect:
This event is part of the 4th Annual Creative and Nighttime Economy Month, a citywide celebration elevating artists, cultural nonprofits, and creative businesses as essential drivers of Philadelphia’s economy and identity.
