'Creative industries' is a new term in academic, policy and industry discourse that captures 'new economy enterprise' dynamics which associated categories 'the arts', 'media' and cultural industries' do not. This project will advance the conceptualisation of creative industries and assist policy and industry by analysing the creative industries in Queensland with a business model of value chain and cluster mapping. Significantly, it will highlight integrated value chain relationships rather than 'silo' constructions of the sector; and produce data useful for informed economics and cultural development strategies by industry partners. Its innovations will benefit industry, and governments, agencies, and councils.Read moreRead less

This project aims at providing a rich and informative data set and analyses of South Australia's Creative Industries to enable a better understanding of the value networks operating in, across and beyond sectors and enable the State's creative industries to be benchmarked against their national and global counterparts. It will carry out a comprehensive, finely granulated, bottom up data gathering exercise and associated analyses needed at the State level to identify gaps in existing information for addressing policy settings and development. This will extend to a cross-sectoral cluster analysis and support a sustainable industry policy within the changing media environment.Read moreRead less
