    About this event

    By definition, freelancers make a living by providing skills and services while entrepreneurs build businesses and create jobs for themselves and others. This line is blurred in the creative media landscape where both freelancers and entrepreneurs play critical roles by contributing amazing content, designs and other intellectual properties.

    With rapidly evolving skill sets, an onslaught of digital technology and a dynamic employment landscape, there are now more unconventional career options for working adults. A prominent labour report also projected that a bulk of our children will be taking up jobs in the future which have not even been created today. What does this mean for creative media professionals, and what exactly sets the freelancers apart from the entrepreneurs? Are freelancers specialists and entrepreneurs generalists? Spend an evening our panel of freelancers and entrepreneurs who will share their career paths and weigh in on the discussion.
