A unique opportunity for creative and cultural social impact organisations across Scotland to access expert guidance tailored to their current needs.
Building on the success of their 2023 programme, Social Investment Scotland (SIS) and Creative Scotland are thrilled to announce the return of CultureXcelerator. This programme is fully funded and offers a unique opportunity for creative and cultural social impact organisations across Scotland to access expert guidance tailored to their current needs.
What’s in it for you?
As a participant, your organisation will be carefully matched with a dedicated SIS Associate who will provide up to four days of tailored coaching, and strategic and practical advice to support you in navigating your current challenges. Eligibility requires a minimum of two years of trading.
You will benefit from:
– Expert guidance: The SIS Associates are subject experts and can help you and your organisation navigate complex challenges.
– Tailored support: The SIS Associate will work closely with you to develop a customised plan that addresses your specific needs.
Immediate impact: Their hands-on approach ensures that you can implement actions right away.
– Last year, they successfully supported 11 organisations from the Shetland Islands to the Scottish Borders demonstrating the programme’s effectiveness in enhancing the capabilities of Scottish cultural enterprises.
They try to make the application process as straightforward as possible. Applications for CultureXcelerator 2025 open on the 6 February with applications due by the 7 March 2025.
They anticipate supporting a maximum of 10 organisations with an April 2025 start date and SIS Associate support completed by the end of October 2025.
