  • Creative Assets and the Changing Economy
    Creative Assets and the Changing Economy STEVEN JAY TEPPER any arts advocates and policymakers have argued that certain Mchanges in the economy (globalization, digitalization, the rise of the “knowledge” worker, the boom in intellectual property, changes in leisure consumption) are having a catalytic effect on art and culture. In particular, the arts are heralded as engines of economic growth and development. Scholars and pundits have written about the central role of creative cities, creative clusters, creative economies, and the “rise of the creative class.” Governments have begun to measure the size and scope of the creative econ- omy as an important indicator of economic health. In short, there is a grow- ing belief that changes in the economy have pushed creative assets to the cen- ter of economic life.1 In this article I will offer a critical assessment of some of these arguments and suggest ways that scholars and policymakers might usefully approach the notion of the changing economy and culture. My gen- eral point is that rather than spend time calculating the impact or size of the creative economy, we should direct our analytical and policy energies toward better understanding how creative work and institutions are changing and what might be done to foster a more robust, more creative, and more diverse cultural life. Steven Jay Tepper is deputy director of the Princeton University Center for Arts and Cultural Policy Studies and a lecturer at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. He has written about sociology of art, cultural policy, and democracy and public space and is currently completing a book on cultural conflict in seventy-five American cities.

  • New Business Models in the Cultural and Creative Sectors (Ccss)
    New Business Models in the Cultural and Creative Sectors (CCSs) EENC Ad hoc question June 2015 1/17 The present paper has been prepared, at the request of DG EAC, by the European Expert Network on Culture (EENC). This paper reflects the views only of the EENC authors and the European Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein. Background Being at the crossroads between arts, business and technology, the cultural and creative sectors find themselves in a strategic position to trigger innovation and spill-overs in other sectors. The 2012 Communication on promoting cultural and creative sectors for growth and jobs in the EU contributed to mainstreaming their potential into other EU policies. Beyond possible spill-overs, innovation is also vital within the cultural and creative sectors themselves in order for them to further grow and to adapt to a constantly evolving technological and financial environment. The decreases in public funding, the challenges of globalisation, the opportunities of digitisation or the increasing empowerment of audiences have already pushed the cultural and creative sectors to test new approaches and to explore new business models. These innovative approaches can be powerful drivers for the strengthening of cultural diversity and for the development of entrepreneurship, as well as for growth, jobs or social inclusion. As specified in the Regulation establishing the Creative Europe Programme 2014-20, in order to promote transnational policy cooperation, the Cross Sectoral Strand shall support "transnational exchange of experiences and know-how in relation to new business and management models, peer- learning activities and networking among cultural and creative organisations and policy- makers related to the development of the cultural and creative sectors, promoting digital networking where appropriate".

    CHAPTER 1 Introduction Anthony Fung In 1997, Tony Blair, the British Prime Minister at that time, proposed the term “creative industries.” Since then, not only has the term become an inspirational and overarching concept in Britain and Europe but also it has been accepted worldwide. Hence, all countries have the potential to use creative industries to strengthen their global competitiveness through various cultural means, such as exporting games, movies, design, fashion, and so on. In intellectual terms, the concept of creative industries captures “those industries which have their origin in individual creativity, skill and talent and which have a potential for wealth and job creation through the generation and exploitation of intellectual property” (Department for Culture, Media & Sport, 2001, p. 5). The formulation of this concept to describe the economic function of intellectual property was elaborated by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) as “any economic activity producing symbolic products with a heavy A.

Thus, digital games and many other forms of games that embody the element of creative content and that rely strongly on intellectual property and authenticity constitute conceptual models of creative industries (Throsby, 2008a, b).

The analysis of creative industries and, in particular, the specificity of managing creative companies require not only understanding of concepts, such as the creativity, arts and business, but also understanding of creative industries in a broader sense, which varies from one country to another; thus, to get a comprehensive image of creative industries, various classifications, activities and further development possibilities should be examined. There should be the international trade in creative goods and services and its added-value scrutinized.

  • The Value of Culture and the Creative Industries in Local Development © Oecd 2019
    OECD Handbook The Value of Culture and the Creative Industries in Local Development Summer Academy on Cultural and Creative Industries and Local Development November 2018 FOREWARD AND AKNOWLEDGMENTS │ 3 Foreword and acknowledgments Capacity building and peer learning processes have increasingly become key elements in complementing national, regional and local governments’ policy development and implementation. This attention has resulted in a major effort by the OECD Trento Centre for Local Development (hereafter the OECD Trento Centre), whose mission is to build capacities for local development in OECD member and non-member countries, in undertaking a number of initiatives aimed at propagating projects to support capacity building in a number of fields of local development. More recently, the OECD and its Trento Centre have embarked on a series of capacity building seminars and conferences aimed at raising awareness of the importance of culture and the creative industries (hereafter CCIs) in local development. A key example of this programme of events is the Summer Academy on Cultural and Creative Industries and Local Development (hereafter SACCI). The Summer Academy — which ran between 11–15 June 2018 in Bolzano and Trento, with a total of 34 participants recruited nationally and internationally through a selection of written applications — is the first event of a three-year capacity building project which will conclude in 2020. The second edition of SACCI will take place from the 17 to the 21 of June 2019. The key objectives of the

  • Buenos Aires: a Creative City?
    Buenos Aires: A Creative City? November 2016 Prepared by the Creative Class Group Forward from Richard Florida Buenos Aires has been through a lot of transformations in its history. It started as a colonial outpost in a rural hinterland and grew into the industrial, financial, and commercial capital of a nation. Now, as Argentina enters a new period of stability, prosperity, and growth, it is shaping up as a leader in the post-industrial creative economy. Like every big city, Buenos Aires faces vexing challenges, among them poverty and brain drain. Fortunately, it has an incredible set of assets in its great universities, a government that is prepared to make the investments in quality of place that it needs—and most importantly of all, a diverse, dynamic, and highly-creative citizenry. If any global city is well-positioned to make the most of an Art Basel Cities, it is Buenos Aires. 2 Executive Summary Simply put, how well does Buenos Aires measure up as a global creative hub? What are its strengths and weaknesses according to the Creative Class Group’s proprietary metrics for urban creativity? How can the city use Art Basel to help cement its status as an emerging creative hub while bolstering its on-going place-making efforts? In the report that follows, we address these questions and offer our key findings and recommendations. Buenos Aires’ Creative Assets and Industries Key findings: • Buenos Aires has 142,213 jobs in creative industries (design, technology, audio-visual, and arts and culture) and creative employment is growing at a faster rate than overall employment for the city.
