I[nspired Spaces North](https://www.prolificnorth.co.uk/inspired-spaces-north-2017/) was such a big hit 2016 that we are back and bigger than ever for 2017 offering the North’s creative community the opportunity to once again showcase its most interesting and innovative workspaces.  The creative and digital sector within the north is currently booming but companies are now, more than ever, under increasing pressure to attract, retain and motivate the best employees. So, the response has been to provide incentives in the form of inspiring, well designed, flexible spaces for them to work, rest and play in.. Inspired Spaces North is calling on all Northern-based businesses within the creative and digital sector, with an office or workspace like no other, to come forward and tell us what’s makes your space stand out, what sets you apart and how has it ultimately helped to ensure a productive, happy workforce. The [Inspired Spaces North](http://www.prolificnorth.co.uk/inspiredspaces/) initiative, in association with [Active Profile](http://www.activeprofile.co.uk/) and [Prolific North](http://www.prolificnorth.co.uk/) is being backed for a second year by headline partner [Capital & Centric](http://capitalandcentric.com/) and supporting partners [Brabners](http://www.brabners.com/) and [Zut Media](http://www.zutmedia.com/), while 2017 also welcomes leading interior design company, [Sheila Bird Group](http://www.sheilabird.com/) and commercial property advisors, [GVA](http://www.gva.co.uk/).   Entries are invited from agencies, organisations and companies across the North and can be submitted via the form on Prolific North’s website, up until 5pm on 30th June. Prolific North, along with a selected judging panel, will be seeking out the very best spaces to be selected as the top ‘Inspired Spaces’ in the north, which will then be profiled on the Prolific North website throughout the Autumn. However, there’s something new for 2017, it’s not only the judges you have to impress, this year we will be opening up the vote to the creative community, to help select the Top Ten Inspired Spaces in the North, which will be announced at our wrap party in November. Anna Heyes, managing director of Active Profile said: “We’re delighted to build on the success of the first year of the Inspired Spaces North initiative, and to receive backing from the industry yet again. “This is a great opportunity for the creative and digital companies from across the north to showcase the creativity and passion which goes into the places in which they work.” Tim Heatley, co-founder of Capital &Centric, said: “Inspired Spaces North is not just about showcasing the most eccentric offices but about celebrating the passion and energy a company can create for its staff through their workspaces. This year we’re looking forward  to seeing how more of the Norths creative community are creating longevity and growth through innovative creative spaces.” **For more details and to enter your workplace in Inspired Spaces North, visit this page[ here](https://www.prolificnorth.co.uk/inspired-spaces-north-2017/)** Written by #### Anna Heyes CEO #### Share this article ### Subscribe to our blog PUBLIC RELATIONS, project management, place, Marketing, PR, Events ![Maximising your profile: amplifying content at business events and conferences](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/SHOWCASING%20THE%20POTENTIAL%20OF%20YOUR%20PRODUCT%20THROUGH%20GROWTH%20EXPERIMENTS-3.png?width=690&name=SHOWCASING%20THE%20POTENTIAL%20OF%20YOUR%20PRODUCT%20THROUGH%20GROWTH%20EXPERIMENTS-3.png) FEATURED POST Latest Post #### [Maximising your profile: amplifying content at business events and conferences](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/maximising-your-profile-amplifying-content-at-business-events-and-conferences) Read Time: 5 minutes Latest Post #### [Harnessing Collective Genius in an Election Year: Bringing the Tech Sector Together Amid Change](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/harnessing-collective-genius-in-an-election-year-bringing-the-tech-sector-together-amid-change) Read Time: 5 minutes [Making careers in PR accessible with Agent Academy](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/making-careers-in-pr-accessible-with-agent-academy) Read Time: 3 minutes --- [‘All in’ case study: building brand authority and awareness through proactive PR and experiments](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/all-in-case-study-building-brand-authority-and-awareness-through-proactive-pr-and-experiments) Read Time: 4 minutes --- [Urban futures, regional impact: Launching Avison Young’s outlook reports across the UK](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/urban-futures-regional-impact-launching-avison-youngs-outlook-reports-across-the-uk) Read Time: 3 minutes --- GROWTH MARKETING, Marketing Experiments ![Why Marketing Experimentation is Better Than Your Guesswork](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/WHY%20MARKETING%20EXPERIMENTATION%20IS%20BETTER%20THAN%20YOUR%20GUESSWORK.png?width=690&name=WHY%20MARKETING%20EXPERIMENTATION%20IS%20BETTER%20THAN%20YOUR%20GUESSWORK.png) FEATURED POST Latest Post #### [Why Marketing Experimentation is Better Than Your Guesswork](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/why-marketing-experimentation-is-better-than-your-guesswork) Read Time: 5 minutes Latest Post #### [Creating a Marketing Strategy Fit for Growth: A Whistle-Stop Guide](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/creating-a-marketing-strategy-fit-for-growth-a-whistle-stop-guide) Read Time: 7 minutes [The 4 magical marketing metrics investors want to see](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/4-marketing-metrics-investors-want-to-see) Read Time: 3 minutes --- [3 reasons why CEOs need agile marketing post Covid-19](https://blog.activeprofile.co.uk/3-reasons-why-ceos-need-agile-marketing-post-covid-19) Read Time: 6 minutes --- [Can a growth communications strategy scale your brand?
