Once again Fused are working with UKTI West Midlands on a great market visit – this time to NxNE in Toronto, Canada. If you haven’t heard of it then think of it as the little sister to SXSW – smaller, kinder, easier and super friendly. It has the film, interactive and music elements and is spread throughout the fabulous downtown central hub of Toronto.

We’ll be heading out and there are around 5 places available on the mission. Details below…

Dates: 13-19th June 2011

What you get: The deal is the same as the SXSW mission – you’ll receive 50% (up to £500 max) towards the costs of your flights/travel, delegate passes and accommodation (so you must spend £1000 to claim the full amount of £500). The money is claimed upon receipt of invoices and proof of spend. *please note delegate passes will NOT be provided by UKTI for this mission

Limitations: Only one person per company can apply. Your company MUST be based in the West Midlands. This is for individual delegates and not bands / musicians. Please see the application form with regard to your company turnover and funding status.

Why should I go? If you want to network, have something to sell, meet people in the same/similar fields, share or promote a product or service.

How do I apply? Just download the NXNE 2011 Application Form and forward to Alison Hawkins  at UKTI – A.Hawkins [@] birmingham-chamber.com

Deadline for applications: As the event is just over 1 month away and spaces are VERY limited we urge you to send your application to Alison by the 20th May 2011.

Want to know more? Feel free to give myself or David a call – we’ve both been out there.

This mission is funded by UKTI West Midlands.
