There was no closer pair of speakers on the stage at Cambridge than Bryan Lourd, co-chairman of Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and his good friend, the double Oscar winner Emma Thompson. This was fitting as the duo discussed the need for creatives and executives to work effectively together for the benefit of all.
Agent-extraordinaire Bryan Lourd and actor and screenwriter Emma Thompson take the temperature of the industry on both sides of the Atlantic and mull over the future of talent and creativity.
The session was part of the RTS Cambridge Convention 2023, with Principal Sponsor Channel 4. The convention took place on 20 - 21 September at King's College, Cambridge.
Convention Chair and CEO of @Channel4, @mahonalex, kicked off the convention with @RonanHarris, Angela Jain, @LeaKaram and Pedro Pina. Using cutting edge research, they dove into the content habits of the UK public.
The agenda-setting programme, titled Too Much to Watch, will see James Corden OBE give his first industry interview since returning to the UK, and Bryan Lourd, Co-Chairman of Creative Artists Agency in conversation with multi-Academy Award® winner Emma Thompson.
