Useful final session on Practitioners' Perspective on the lived relations of life in the creative industries in Scotland #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

@StacyGray45 Prof Vicky Gunn talks through key role that creative education plays in creative industries - should be included in the current listings of CIs #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

Good message from @scotent Steve Dunlop about the need for Scotland's support system to flex and change in response to the diversity of creative industries, not the other way round. Systems must not insist on normativity and uniformity at the expense of innovation #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

@scotent Steve Dunlop makes clear 'spearhead' role for culture and creativity in progressing SE ambition and ambitions of Scotland's regional economic partnerships #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

DavidMartin of SDS makes good point about need to pay attention to the ways in which Scotland's young people 'reset the dials' on what creativity and creative skills are: big data needs to be nuanced enough to see some of that @skillsdevscot #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

@ElizaEaston offers prescient provocation in amongst analysis of future skills: in the future, 'judgement' will be a vital skill. Creative and cultural education will make a core contribution to this 'future-tech'. #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

Culture and creativity play a central role in the necessariness of 'learning to learn' to keep pace with contemporary times. Good message from Cabinet Secretary @FionaHyslop #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

@FionaHyslop registers the international profile and repute afforded Scotland by its world ranking specialist creative institutions: @GSofA and @RCStweets #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

@FionaHyslop good on importance of creativity in allowing a nation to thrive, not merely survive: creativity and innovation make Scotland a great collaborator on a number of fronts #POCP

[Ken Neil @KTWNeil]

Looking forward to all of today's speakers at GSA's and Abertay's Places of Creative Production seminar @DundeeRep Thanks to Cabinet Secretary for opening keynote @FionaHyslop #POCP
