  • Media Nations 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • 1 Culture, Tourism, Europe and External Relations Committee
    Culture, Tourism, Europe and External Relations Committee Scotland’s Screen Sector Written submission from Patricia Duncan I am writing in relation to your open call for written evidence to the above inquiry, in particular the subject of studios and of ‘Infrastructure, Intelligence and Maximising Benefit to Scotland’. In this document, I will initially summarise UK studio development trends, and in context of this analysis, evidence why state aid has become a perceived, rather than actual, barrier to state or local authority investment in screen infrastructure in Scotland. I will subsequently discuss how we can take advantage of present and forthcoming opportunities in the screen and creative industries sector, and propose a viable model for the development of the type of physical space the industry requires. 1. UK studio development trends Studio facility development for the creation of film and television content broadly falls into two categories - new build, or the refurbishment or repurposing of vacant industrial space. 1.1. New build From a new build perspective, UK studio development seems (which I will disprove later in this document) to be private sector driven. Typically, the developer may be an existing studio provider looking to expand their offer using debt or equity financing, or indeed their own resources. Alternatively, it may be a new entrant to the sector speculatively building facilities, and presenting a business proposal that will interest investors on the promise of an attractive yield. The obvious UK industry leader, Pinewood Group Ltd, has an existing global reputation and critical mass in Buckinghamshire on which to build upon, and as an investable entity is very strong, hence the ongoing new build expansion of their site1.

  • 1 Culture, Tourism, Europe and External Relations Committee
    Culture, Tourism, Europe and External Relations Committee Scotland’s Screen Sector inquiry Supplementary written evidence from Film City Glasgow On behalf of our tenants, please accept my thanks to you and the Committee for taking the time to visit Film City Glasgow. The ongoing work of the Committee has been conspicuous and well received by the industry, and I look forward to hearing how your inquiry is progressing. In terms of the discussion we had in relation to infrastructure, despite the challenges the sector has faced in resolving the ‘studio’ question, I believe more now than ever there is a confluence of opportunity that will allow us to create the foundation on which the sector can build. The SSLG report; the creation of the Screen Unit; the doubling of Creative Scotland’s screen budget; the NFTS’s flag in the ground in Scotland; and the FOCUS business development project which Film City is managing; all initiatives that will lead to what I see are the two overriding ambitions for the sector - growth and volume. As you will recall, my presentation to the Committee paid particular attention to infrastructure and the success of Manchester City Council in their delivery of production facilities for the screen and creative industries, primarily through an arms- length organisation MCDA Ltd, which is 100% owned by the local authority. I also drew parallels with Film City Glasgow, and how both our respective projects in Glasgow and Manchester have been founded on the principles of ‘sectoral clustering’ and ‘attracting both indigenous and international productions’ – and both very successfully.

It’s wonderful to be recognised for our great apprentices, inspiring work and strong leadership.

Are we opening access to talent from a wider social background? Furthermore, how are we more than the sum of our parts? This year we commissioned an independent report created by First Ark, who calculated that every £1 spent with SharpFutures generates £8 in social value. We have proven that we are solving a business need and creating social impact in Manchester – why wouldn’t you book us? This year, grow and invest in POD.

  • Meeting Minutes
    Manchester City Council Minutes Executive 9 September 2020 Executive Minutes of the meeting held on Wednesday, 9 September 2020 Present: Councillor Leese (Chair) Councillors: Akbar, Craig, N Murphy, Rahman, Stogia and Richards Also present as Members of the Standing Consultative Panel: Councillors: Karney, Leech, M Sharif Mahamed [part], Sheikh, Midgley, Ilyas, Taylor and S Judge Apologies: Councillors Bridges and Ollerhead Exe/20/88 Minutes Decision To approve as a correct record the minutes of the meeting on 29 July 2020. Exe/20/89 COVID-19 Monthly Update Report The written report from the Chief Executive took the form of three “situation reports”, one each for the work on the city’s economic recovery, work with residents and communities, and work on the future of the Council itself. The written report was noted. At the meeting an oral update on the pandemic was provided by the Consultant in Public Health. She provided a general update on the levels of infection in the city. Overall case numbers on the North West and in Greater Manchester continued to rise, and the infection control restrictions remaining in place in Greater Manchester with more stringent measures recently introduced in Bolton. In Manchester household and community transmission still seemed to be the main cause of new infections, with new cases spread across the city. The latest figures showed 62.8 cases per 100,000 people, which meant that there was about new 50 cases each day in the city. There were no significant outbreaks or clusters to report. She then addressed the testing arrangements and the many problems that grown to prominence in the national media.

  • Mapping Incubators, Accelerators and Co-Working Spaces in the North West
    Mapping incubators, accelerators and co-working spaces in the North West: A review of the economic benefit of the regions workspaces and their role in encouraging innovation March 2018 For further information contact: [email protected] March 2018 !1 Executive Summary Introduction • Incubators, accelerators and co-working spaces (IACs) provide workspace and support to start-ups / small businesses and can play a key role in driving up productivity and innovation within the economy. • National research has found that start-ups that have access to strong IAC’s are more likely to survive and grow than those that are not part of a formal programme, supporting economic growth in an area.1 Furthermore, a recent report for the Northern Powerhouse Partnership2 recognised their potential for boosting the North’s contribution to the UK’s economy, particularly for the tech sector but increasingly for all sectors. It found that incubators across the prime capabilities are accessible across the North, despite the fact that more than half of the UK’s total are in London. Therefore, understanding how the North West can encourage and support IACs will help boost productivity and economic growth in the region. • In the North West, the number of start-ups per 10,000 working age population significantly lags London (171) the UK as a whole (100) and the East of England (120) at 93. Given the link with productivity and innovation this suggests that there is room for growth in IAC’s across the region. • It is set in this context that this report for the NW Regional Leaders Board reviews the incubator, accelerator and co-working space landscape across the North West.
