BOP has served as a strategic partner to a confidential client in the Gulf, supporting the development of an integrated cultural strategy for a major new city development.
Project Team
Our cultural strategy has established the foundations for a robust cultural ecosystem — spanning strategic planning for cultural assets and programmes, workforce planning across the creative value chain, and the development of socioeconomic impact models for the culture, entertainment and fashion sectors.
Through successive project phases, BOP delivered international benchmarking, workforce taxonomy and modelling, and talent pipeline analysis to inform leadership development, apprenticeships, residencies and creative R&D. We also prepared business cases and governance frameworks for major cultural assets, alongside design briefs and workshops to inform masterplanning and architecture.
This multi-year collaboration has produced an evidence based roadmap for activating a world-leading cultural and creative sector — aligning vision, talent and infrastructure to deliver sustainable creative growth and lasting social and economic impact.
