After achieving great success in Berlin and New York, the "Opera Dinners" concept, initiated by Felix Elkmann, that goes beyond a typical social event, finally arrived in Paris in collaboration with FEDORA. These evening events offer a unique opportunity for emerging musicians and opera singers to connect with potential donors in a more relaxed context, removed from the formality of an opera house context.

ESCP Business School - Company Consultancy Project
01 February 2021
Paris / France
Since 2015 we have been working closely with Business Schools in order to get young professionals involved in the cultural industry and inform them about the importance of different funding models for opera houses, ballet companies and festivals.
Every year we come together with ESCP Europe Business School students from the master of Marketing and Creativity Programme to conduct Company and Class Consultancy Projects. This year's project was particularly challenging due to the severe impact of the pandemic on the cultural sector, yet very fruitful regarding the potential new opportunities for the future of these art forms.
