In response to the impact of the on-going pandemic Future Screens have appointed 25 mentors to provide mentoring support to individuals and groups within the creative industries who have faced significant challenges and which to consider ways in which to become more sustainable. Appointed mentors have been drawn from across the full spectrum of the creative industries including the screen industry, new emerging and immersive technologies, education, business development, R&D led Festivals and large scale events.
