Wilson’s Republic is 10 years old!

To celebrate, they’re bringing you an all-day event packed with inspiration and insight on October the 23rd

Day Time Event:

11am – 6pm
The Blending shed,
Bates mill, Queens Street south, Huddersfield

A line-up of 6 stellar speakers from across different creative disciplines
A live speaker panel for you to ask questions
Onsite food vendors, bar and merchandise stall
A break out space where you can work, drink coffee or just hang out.

Their theme is ROUTES. In a creative career, there is no one ‘golden path’. Routes will explore the pivots, twists and turns that shape creative careers. It’s something that couldn’t feel more relevant for the creative industries at the moment and we feel it’s important to address, share and discuss with inspirational speakers from around the UK.

They are returning to Bates Mill, the venue for our first conference in 2017. It has a rich heritage in textiles production and is now a beating creative heart for the town of Huddersfield.
