Growth in the creative industries - investment, skills and policy priorities

December 2014


Price: £95 PLUS VAT
Format: DOWNLOADABLE PDF


In light of the UK Creative Industries International Strategy by UKTI and the Creative Industries Sector Advisory Group, this seminar provided an opportunity to examine the emerging opportunities and challenges for the creative sector - and consider priorities for industry and Government to strengthen the international competitiveness of the UK as a creative services hub.
It brought together representatives from across the creative industries with academics, investors, advisors, senior Government officials and Parliamentarians.
Delegates discussed how the creative industries can harness the full potential of new digital platforms, and the most promising strategies to export services to new emerging markets, meet changing consumer demands, promote industry-led skills initiatives, and to maximise value from IP. They also considered priorities for policy to support the growth of creative start-ups - including facilitating investment, a competitive tax environment, and attracting cultural tourism to the UK.
