Field's efforts are truly breaking new ground. Grantee projects are intriguing. I wonder if this new research on the cultural consumer http://patricia-martin.com/research.htm is useful to your grantees in helping them have strategic conversations with businesses to forge alliances, collaborate on new business models or recruit sponsors.
