"These aren't just self-contained projects - students have to research clients and markets, work to deadlines and present their ideas, just as they would in industry." Lydia Thornley, Design consultant and Ideas Foundation industry tutor

What's unique about The Ideas Foundation

We're passionate about ideas.

We're professionals from the creative industries and education.

We go beyond nurturing young people's creative skills to help them explore enterprise and employment.

Our programmes connect students to industry. There are plenty of wonderful community and education arts organisations doing fantastic work but few offer an industrial experience. The Ideas Foundation does!

We are one of the only organisations that properly prepare young people to access work experience placements in the creative industries or to persuade creative agencies to open their doors to non-graduates.
