Baiduri Bank announced the conclusion of the Creators Camp 2024, an event designed to empower and connect local creative minds.
The event brought together over 140 participants and emphasised the theme of digital storytelling, providing attendees with the tools and inspiration to excel and connect effectively in the digital age.
The Creators Camp brought together budding and seasoned creators for a day of learning and collaboration and featured sessions on branding, marketing, and fundraising, with presentations from notable local content creators, influencers, and industry leaders.
Among the highlights was a panel discussion with popular content creators, including Sumardi Hedus from Relentless, Salimatul Sa’ada Saleh (@Ninjatutul) and Nabeela Fadzil (@lipstickmyname) who shared their experiences and creative processes.
Baiduri Bank Chief Executive Officer Ti Eng Hui said, “The Creators Camp is all about nurturing creativity and innovation. We aim to build a strong community of creators, providing them with the business know-how needed to turn their creative passions into successful ventures.
“This event is a fantastic opportunity to connect, collaborate, and create, driving the growth and impact of our local creative scene.”
