O P I N I O N

How many languages do you design for?

The design economy is increasingly global. With that brings the reality of learning to design for new languages. We are interested in how many languages you produce work for your clients.

State your opinion http://www.icograda.org/web/opinion


F R O M  P R E V I O U S  O P I N I O N

Should design education be a criteria for professional practice?

52% A minimum two year programme from a recognised design institution.
  7% Any education, however you should pass an exam on the fundamentals of design.

Creative Community Singapore launches two new schemes

CCS hopes to evolve a creative and connected community where arts, culture, business and technology converge to empower and engage individuals. We believe that innovation thrives when people with creative ideas are given the right support. This is the reason why we are unveiling two new schemes, which integrate funding with non-financial assistance, to give these talents an opportunity to realise their potential, by nurturing their creativity and turning their ideas into sustainable creative businesses.
 
Creative Talent Fund
Targeted at individuals and organizations in Singapore, the Creative Talent Fund aims to promote creativity and entrepreneurship in the community by providing support for prototype, proof-of-concept or test-trial of ideas and concepts involving the Creative Industries.
 
Creative Business Fund
Targeted at organisations in Singapore, the Creative Business Fund aims to foster and support the development of viable creative businesses in the Creative Industries.
 
The closing date for the first round of proposal submissions for both schemes is Tuesday, 15 May 07.
