In her opening remarks, UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova described the findings as “very good news.” “For many years, UNESCO has been calling for a better recognition of the role of CCI in fostering sustainable development and sustainable economic growth,” said Bokova. “Time has come to take culture seriously in economic terms.”

CISAC President Jean-Michel Jarre said that the report was “a landmark study” that paints an “impressive picture” of the creative industries CISAC Director General globally. It provides governments and policymakers Gadi Oron Marc Lhermitte, Partner EY with the “evidence that they should support their creative community.” Jarre expressed the creative community’s concern about the transfer of value that is currently taking place in the market when internet intermediaries capture value to build multi-billion businesses on the back of creative content, but do not fairly remunerate creators”.

The largest markets for CCI are Asia-Pacific followed by Europe and North America.

They are individuals with limited leverage when facing CISAC Director General Gadi Oron (left) major players in the digital economy.” and UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova (right) The press conference and study were extensively covered by press, generating around 300 articles across the globe (See p. 24).
