The Future of Market Platforms Series
Navigating markets in an era of disruption.

The Future of Market Platforms Series

March-June 2022

International mobility has changed significantly in the face of the climate crisis and pandemic disruption. Join us for a focused conversation series exploring the role traditional market ‘moments’ will now play in artists’ and companies’ international engagement ambitions. Now that so much is online and connecting has never been simpler… when do you need to prioritise IRL engagement and what’s the new strategy for your time and resources.

We will hone in on market events and hear from artists and industry leaders as they share their unique experiences and recommendations to help you navigate the market in these new times.

To conclude our program APAM has prepared a Market Platforms resource paper to support artists and arts workers to develop global relationships, extend their arts practice, and create opportunities to share their work.
