  • Identification of Determinants of Creative Activity Sectors Development in Polish Regions on Example of West Pomeranian Voivodship
    Human Resources Management & Ergonomics Volume VII 1/2013 IDENTIFICATION OF DETERMINANTS OF CREATIVE ACTIVITY SECTORS DEVELOPMENT IN POLISH REGIONS ON EXAMPLE OF WEST POMERANIAN VOIVODSHIP ANETA SOKÓŁ Abstract Currently, it is more and more noticeable that development of regions involves using endogenous resources and potential. Here, a significant consideration is given to development of factors of intangible nature. In this context, literature of a subject frequently presents influence of intangibles on development of regions; however, analysis of the creative sector, which significance in creating value added in the region seems to be unquestionable, is rare. In reference to aforementioned, the article is focused on presenting influence of this sector on development of Zachodniopomorskie Province. Verification of set goals was conducted based on analysis of literature of a subject and surveys conducted in the group of entrepreneurs operating in SME in the creative industries. It may be said that development of the creative sector in regions depends on many factors with direct or indirect influence. There is emphasized the significance of this phenomenon in economic processes indicating its superior role in reference to financial capital, which may be measured. For more effective development of discussed sector in Polish regions, some actions should be taken in order to increase activity of business entities acting within the creative industries on a given territory, but in particular it refers to: facilitating access to external financing sources of research and development operations, creating function of Ambassadors of Creativity, supporting development of infrastructure/tools, which allow development of a creative sector, supporting development of the information society, focusing scientific research environment on the purpose of creativity development, promoting cooperation of world of scientists with world of a creative sector, propagating benefits resulting from cooperation within creative sectors among business entities, etc.
