Spark Spark is ISE's cross-vertical innovation and collaboration platform, designed to connect the creative, technology, and experience economy sectors through immersive live experiences and thought leadership. Created in collaboration with industry partners, Spark addresses the growing fragmentation between industries by bringing together professionals, technologies, and ideas within a shared innovation ecosystem. The initiative combines live demonstrations, content creation, storytelling, and experiential environments to showcase how technology and creativity can drive transformation across multiple sectors. Spark enables collaboration between brands, creators, technology companies, and industry leaders while fostering dialogue around emerging trends, connected experiences, and the future of digital engagement. By blending the scalability of technology with the value of in-person interaction, Spark creates a platform where innovation can be explored, tested, and communicated through real-world applications and collaborative experiences.
Spark provides organisations with the opportunity to engage with a curated audience of creators, innovators, technology providers, and experience designers through dedicated exhibition, content, and collaboration opportunities. Participation models vary depending on the nature of the organisation, activation requirements, and level of involvement. ISE is open to discussing tailored participation packages for EIC beneficiaries and exploring opportunities that create value for both parties. Potential collaborations may include exhibition presence, thought leadership contributions, demonstrations, or other forms of participation aligned with the objectives of the Spark programme.
