Project
The project aims to explore novel policymaking techniques for EU creative industries to enhance their global competitiveness. Brexit, the pandemic, and increased military spending following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have put the EU’s creative industries at a disadvantage at times of the increased disinformation and weaponisation of soft power by authoritarian regimes. Compared to their Asian and US counterparts, European creative industries lag behind in exports, revenues, and innovative business models. One of the reasons for this is the traditional policymaking cycle’s focus on immediate issues rather than long-term strategic sectors. The research proposes potential tools to prioritise the creative sector and unleash its innovative potential against the uncertain political and economic background. It focuses on three main techniques, namely intergenerational analysis, big data analysis, and regulatory sandboxes, to increase the efficiency of creative industries’ policymaking.
