In the summer of 2014 Insights Platforms visited the Northern School of Contemporary Dance to hold a platform with a difference. We wanted to expand on the opportunities we were creating for the artists which we were supporting, by also providing teaching opportunities. Therefore, this event also consisted of a variety of workshops provided for the students at the Northern School of Contemporary Dance, led by some of the performing companies.

In September 2012 Insights Platforms produced an event at The Holy Biscuit art gallery in Newcastle upon Tyne that gave artists the opportunity to network, communicate and promote themselves further. As well as an independent platform, the Newcastle upon Tyne event also consisted of a networking event, at which artists were given the opportunity to present portfolios, footage of their work, marketing materials etc. for others to engage with. The networking event was accompanied with drinks and live music by JohnE.
