Onwards and Upwards: the xPlot Journey Continues

The Crossing Borders event showed us the endless possibilities stemming from the Cultural and Creative Industries. This summer, we’re picking up on loose ends and tying it all together.

Summer has finally reached us here in Sweden, and with it comes the blue skies and the sun! Even though things might seem more quiet here than usual, that’s because we are in full planning mode for the autumn and crossing new borders into the future. We all need some time to recharge our batteries every now and then, but even though summer is here - we are working harder than ever. And we WANT YOU WITH US! The event on the 19th of May showed us the endless possibilities of hybrid events and we have just only scratched the surface of what can be done.

As we wrote in a recent post, we have a bit to learn from this event, but we also had a BLAST during the night! Hopefully you all did too, it was so nice to see how many of you showed up for the night. While we ran into some technical issues, the main thing is that we DARED to do it! We did something completely new, and thanks to our amazing speakers and your participation during the discussions and seminars, we all think it was a success.

Below is a short summary of the amazing night we had together!


Crossing Borders was only the beginning. Now we plan ahead for the summer, autumn, and are looking forward to everything that is to come. Just a few days ago we wrote about BRIGHT and the future of Smart-Fashion, you can find the article here. Along the same lines, during the next few weeks we will be posting updates and in-depth articles regarding the various topics we encountered during the event; diving deeper into each and lingering for a bit longer. Stay tuned here, on Facebook as well as on Instagram for the latest updates.


We talked about cinematography, urban design, FemTech, the power of your mind, and SO much more. The journey is only just beginning, and we want you to join us.
