Centre for Creative Business Innovation

Question. Create. Share.

We explore your questions through multi-disciplinary collaboration. We organize people with deep expertise and match them with our wide range of resources to help you mobilize the change you want to see, and boost your business through uncertain times.

Innovation is new ideas successfully applied. But how do you see things in a new light? You can't find solutions if you're not asking the right questions. And then to share your success, you need to have the right story on the best platform possible. The CCBI helps communities and businesses discover where their issues are, then harnesses our creativity with media, performing and fine arts, design, and communications to drive solutions, commercialize concepts, boost productivity, amplify the story and find the right solution.

Question. Create. Share. All in a time of high-speed change with challenges we've never faced before. Do you want to work with us?

Cultural Hub

Humber Polytechnic is transforming its Lakeshore Campus into a destination for arts and culture through the development of the Humber Cultural Hub, which will be a catalyst for building the next generation of artistic, cultural and creative leaders. Providing much-needed capacity to meet the growing demand for skilled talent in creative industries and delivering important benefits to culturally underserviced local communities, the Cultural Hub will attract businesses, create jobs, enrich the economy and cultivate new audiences for the arts.
