Our Spotlighting Getting Started programme helps start-ups to put what they have learnt during Getting Started Online, a one-week introduction to business course, into action. Through practical assignments, participants learn how to photograph their work, speak live to camera and prepare their pieces for our annual Spotlighting Getting Started exhibition.

We run our events in person at the Goldsmiths’ Centre and online, so that as many of our community as possible can exchange ideas, learn from industry experts, and form valuable connections across the UK. We do not record these events, or broadcast them when they are in person, to encourage the open sharing of ideas and experiences and preserve confidentiality.
