dsc7895

What a year it’s been for Prolific North.

2022 – our 10th year in business – has been a 12 months packed full of industry-leading events, benchmark-setting research and thousands of stories documenting the continuing growth of the North’s digital and creative industries.

In the last quarter alone, we’ve hosted a sold-out Prolific North Tech Awards at the Hilton Manchester and then turned the spotlight on the North’s early-stage start-up sector with our inaugural Tech Companies to Watch event.

We’ve heard from some of the region’s most successful agency leaders with our Prolific North Live event, hosted at KPMG’s Northern HQ, that looked at creativity and the power of partnerships.

A panel session at the Tech Companies to Watch event


We launched the latest edition of the Northern Agency Guide – the most successful one yet – with a packed event in Manchester’s Northern Quarter.

And we’ve hosted a special event for the PR sector where agency and brand PR leaders discussed how to navigate a recession, as well as a fascinating roundtable with JAM looking at marketing for the 40-60 market.

Much more happened across the year, but our attention is now turning to our 2023 schedule.

Here are some of the events and other initiatives you can look forward to.
