BCS MD joins board of Creative Industries Network
Murray Carmichael-Smith, group managing director of Nottingham communications agency BCS, has joined the board of the Derby-based Creative Industries Network (CIN).
The aim of the Network is to enhance the East Midlands’ reputation as a hotbed of creative talent, rivalling the traditional powerhouses of London and Manchester.
Murray said: “We’re looking to put Derbyshire and its neighbours on the map. There is some outstanding traditional and multi-media work coming out of the region’s agencies and we want to bring it to the nation’s attention. There’s no escaping the fact that traditional industry is declining in the area, but it’s being replaced by the creative sector and the CIN wants to ensure we attract the cream of British talent to keep us at the forefront of the industry.”
