Residents are invited to attend a free livestream of "Inspiring Entrepreneurs: Gaming for Business", an exciting event delivered by the British Library about understanding business models used in the gaming industry.
The event will be livestreamed across the UK on the British Library platform, and will be available to watch at Leamington Spa Library & Information Centre on Tuesday 19 September. Visitors are invited to attend from 6:15pm – 9:30pm and enjoy light refreshments, and the livestream itself will be shown between 6:30 – 8:30pm.
The livestream will feature a panel of gaming and design industry experts, who will explore how the fusion of game mechanics, psychology, cutting-edge design, and technology can breathe new life into traditional industries, and invigorate employee engagement, customer loyalty and overall business success. It will also cover how online technologies are continuing to evolve and discuss what their ever-growing influence is on society, particularly on the next generation of entrepreneurs.

There will also be the opportunity for attendees to receive demonstrations in Leamington Library of the free technology available at multiple library sites across the County, including:

- Business reference advisor tool COBRA, which features more than 4,000 factsheets, market reports, contacts and sources of funding and support. It also provides practical guides to help start up more than 350 different types of business, and can support anyone who is looking to start a business, write a business or marketing plan, or conduct research into a new market.
- Digital Hublet tablets, which allow users to enjoy access to free eMagazines, eNewspapers, eBooks, and other online eResources without the need to have or bring their own digital devices to their local library.
