Description

Buckinghamshire New University is launching GLIDE, a new initiative which aims to generate increased levels of entrepreneurship within the region by consolidating the existing knowledge and expertise and streamlining it to better cater to the needs of individuals wishing to start their own business. By doing so, GLIDE seeks to encourage innovation in the wake of COVID-19 and ultimately invigorate economic development and productivity growth within the region.
      GLIDE is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) Programme which is designed to create jobs and support innovation, businesses, and local community regeneration. 
      
      The GLIDE programme, and subsequently this tender, is split into two lots. Suppliers can submit proposals for both or either lot.
      
      Lot 1 - Creative Entrepreneurs Bootcamps
      A series of workshops covering a range of topics aimed at supporting individuals who have a business idea relevant to the creative industries and providing them with the tools, knowledge and encouragement needed to start their own business. The successful supplier will be responsible for organising, managing and running the two virtual Bootcamps, with the first held in July 2021 and the second held in September 2021. 
      
      Lot 2 - Business Support 
      The second stage of the GLIDE programme seeks to support individuals further along in their entrepreneurial journey by providing direct support to a further 60 registered businesses.  The successful supplier will be responsible for organising, managing and running the workshops, which we anticipate taking place in late 2021 or early 2022. 
      
      Suppliers must be familiar with and comply with ERDF requirements.
      
      Suppliers who would like to take part in this tender process are invited to 'Express Interest' here https://in-tendhost.co.uk/bucksnewuni/aspx/ 
      
      The documents are anticipated to be published by Wednesday 26th May 2021.

Review of Certain Regulatory Policies For Online Audiovisual Services

Some major English-speaking territories (e.g., Australia, Canada, New Zealand) and many European countries (e.g. Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Spain) have brought in, are introducing or are considering regulation of online audiovisual services, mainly Video on Demand (VOD) but sometimes also Video Sharing Platforms (VSPs), with the aim to support their national screen industries, especially independent sectors. The measures include investment obligations, levies, rules around rights retention as well as quotas. Within the European Union and the European Economic Area, such interventions are governed by the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD). Ahead of the ex-post evaluation of the AVMSD due from the European Commission by December 2026, there is already debate around the current set of interventions that are allowed by the AVMSD and some EU stakeholders will be pushing for revisions to the AVMSD interventions (these might include, e.g. investment obligations, levies, quotas and rights retention as well as whether these parts of the Directive should be extended to VSPs). There are some research reports providing either an overarching view of policy options and drivers in this sphere (such as Film i Väst reports) or a limited release of early data (as in the case of the Centre National du Cinéma et de l'image Animée (CNC)), but there is no comprehensive analysis of either the rationale for these measures or their initial impacts on the health of the wider screen ecosystem in the respective territories. The principal focus of this research is the impact of regulation of online services, including VOD (both Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) and Ad-supported Video on Demand (AVOD) platforms), and video sharing platforms such as YouTube and TikTok where relevant. For each country studied, we want to understand the impacts on the audiovisual ecosystem as a whole, and local independent film and TV production in particular (as strengthening the latter is often the objective of such interventions), audiences and cultural diversity. The study should also include a counterfactual which considers these impacts in a territory (outside the UK) in which such measures have not been introduced. Additional information: To take part in this tender, please visit our website, at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/bfi/aspx/Tenders/Current , where you will need to register, if you haven't already, and express an interest in this opportunity to access the relevant documents. Please note expressions of interest will only be accepted via the portal. Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
