On 24 April 2009, Steve Moffitt, (Director - A New Direction) spoke at Mercado Atlántico de Creación Contemporánea (macc) in Tenerife, on new ways of realising partnership between the education, cultural and creative sectors.

macc is a unique professional event that offers something different to existing cultural markets and promotes innovation, up-and-coming talent and artistic research.

Between 23 and 25 April 2009, the Auditorio in Tenerife welcomed creators, artists, cultural promoters, financiers, institutional agents, private business and any others keen to give free rein to their creative potential or looking for new focuses for the business sector in the midst of change.

macc is the new market for artistic creation and innovation: a meeting point for cultural research, development and innovation, for showing and observing experiences, ideas and creative artistic processes that go above and beyond conventional proposals - an opportunity for turning creative impulses into concrete ideas to promote social development.
