On 4 November 2011, Creative Boom became part of The Guardian's new Culture Professionals Network[1] one of many professional networks available on the newspaper's website.

History

Creative Boom[2] was launched on 24 July 2009 and created by Boomerang, a UK-based PR agency.[3]

The idea for Creative Boom came about after its founder Katy Cowan spoke to other freelancers and small businesses on Twitter and realised there was a need for creative support online. Somewhere people could gain free exposure, support and learn about all things creative.

Staff

Creative Boom is run by its founder and editor Katy Cowan, a trained journalist and writer from Manchester, UK, along with a team of writers and contributors.
