The project ‘Creative City Challenge’ analyses challenges and barriers confronting the creative sector in the North Sea Region.
The analysis aims to develop an effective strategy supported by a range of instruments and methods which would help sustainably support the creative industries in the North Sea Region. The goal of the project is to create competitive, innovation-based urban and regional economies in the North Sea Region, in line with the objectives of the EU Lisbon Agenda 2000. ‘Creative City Challenge’ is a transnational collaboration. The project partners come from 13 cities and 6 countries. They comprise representatives of the public services, academic institutions and industry. The collaboration relies on intensive exchanges between the project partners and partner cities as well as stakeholders from all sectors of the creative industry. |
