We’re delighted to host Emmy-nominated impact producer Simone Pero, founder of For Impact Productions, for a powerful conversation for artists who aim for their projects to be creatively bold, financially sustainable, and socially meaningful.
Simone will introduce her signature Impact³ framework — aligning Artistic excellence, Commercial sustainability, and Social impact.
Simone’s core belief is that artists are the first responders of social change, helping us imagine new futures long before systems catch up. Through her framework and approaches, Simone equips artists with the strategies and mindset to become empowered change-maker leaders.
