Bloom is returning to Liverpool in 2025, ready to bring together leaders, doers and strategists from the creative and digital sectors. This one-day, future-focused event is designed as a hub for innovation, collaboration, and strategic development, where attendees can immerse themselves in a wealth of ideas and practical insights, forge new connections, and leave with inspiration to take part in real, progressive action.

Last May, Bloom made its debut in Liverpool. The event featured:

  • 20 influential speakers sharing their expertise.
  • 15 support organisations offering guidance.
  • 30 exhibitors showcasing their latest innovations.

The day was packed with panel discussions, engaging talks, and one-on-one advice sessions, all geared towards ensuring digital and creative businesses are equipped for the future. Attendees not only benefited from expert insights but also enjoyed great food, live music, and ample opportunities to connect and grow their networks.

In 2025, we’re thinking bigger. The event will have a focus on the theme of collaboration and will explore how we can make alliances and work together for the greater success of the creative and digital sectors. Bloom 2025 will bring together businesses across ‘the North’ to connect and explore how those working in the creative and digital industries contribute to and drive the creative economy.

Following on from the success of Bloom 2024, there will be topics on how business leaders can future-proof their businesses and adapt to challenges, advice on how to cultivate the next generation of skilled professionals and the purpose of place; exploring the evolving nature of our cities and how creativity contributes to these shifts. 

All of these topics will be weaved by the leading theme of Bloom 2025; collaboration.

Bloom is an event for:

  • Creatives, digital leaders, doers, and strategists looking to not only stay ahead of the curve, but help guide where the sectors are going.
  • Team members seeking expertise to future-proof their businesses.
  • Networkers and collaborators ready to engage, connect, and build lasting partnerships.

Bloom is a space to learn, share, and act, fostering a collaborative environment where ideas are planted, nurtured, and set to grow.
