Eligibility
Creative BC will provide financial assistance to selected individuals to help offset registration, travel and accommodation costs. Creative BC’s contribution must not exceed final approved eligible costs. Creative BC reserves the right to reduce the award following review of the final costs. If the producer should receive complimentary conference registration or travel from the market organizers, those amounts are considered to be outside of the final reportable eligible costs. You may only include cash expenses for which a receipt can be provided.

A maximum participation of between $1,000 and $2,500 is set by Creative BC depending on the location and costs of the event, and represents no more than 50% of the applicant’s final cash expenditures to attend. Successful applicants will receive up to 100% of Creative BC’s contribution upon submission of a Final Report (see ‘Reporting’ below) and all cost receipts after attendance at the market pending review of expense eligibility.

Reporting
After attending the market, producers will have 30 business days from the market close date to submit a Final Report and all cost receipts to Creative BC. Successful applicants may be asked to complete and return a survey following their attendance at the market.
