Creative Economy

We support people around the world to shape and share a creative and prosperous future. We build networks and support collaboration for long-term impact, mutual benefit, and greater international understanding.

Our programme focuses on policy, research and advocacy, as well as capacity building for creative professionals and policymakers. Our work supports the development of dynamic, diverse and future-facing creative economies, with long-term links to the UK.

We are a global team, with specialist colleagues in over 30 countries around the world. We work with policymakers in the UK and internationally to support their work at a strategic level, ensuring the conditions are in place for creative individuals and organisations to grow, reach their potential and effect relevant, sustainable change.

Our work has led to long-term change at government level in many countries – notably, cultural industries and enterprise hubs are now included in national strategies across the globe.
