According to Morgan-Baaitjies, a creative and cultural consultant with expertise in business strategy, brand positioning, and arts marketing: “Stepping in to serve on the Basa board allows me the opportunity to contribute to the sector on a larger scale. Connecting arts and business is critical for the sustainability of the creative and cultural industries”.
