Similarly to other industries, the issue of competitiveness is present here as well. Due to the heterogeneous Singidunum University, nature of the tourism industry, this problem is multidimensional and far more Belgrade, Serbia complex than in other industries. Consequently, the mechanisms which can be employed to improve the competitiveness in this area are more complex. Among them, the creative economy is becoming increasingly important, and, within its scope, the creative industries as a set of activities which are a product of talent and creative potential of individuals and their individual or joint engagement. The aim of this paper is to draw attention to the growing role of the creative economy and creative and cultural industries in creating an authentic Serbian tourism product – cultural tourism, whose quality can be recognized on the European and world market and which, as such, can contribute to faster eco- nomic development. Keywords: cultural tourism, creative economy, cultural industries, competitiveness INTRODUCTION The tourism industry of the Republic of Serbia operates in the co- ordinates of a very complex and layered market system. It is part of the tourism market of the Balkan countries in transition and is, therefore, burdened with economic and political legacy of the recent past.
