Creative Businesses are special - myth or reality?
John Barnett, Sector Manager Business Link South Yorkshire
Research proposes that Creative businesses are different and suggests that the key issues are time to market, product life cycle, partnering with dominant players and intensity of competition. Are these issues unique to the Creative sector or are they typical of all service based businesses? The presentation is designed to stimulate debate around this question.

The Creative Region
|
|
| |

Creative Industries and the Regions: A match made in heaven - or will it all end in tears?
Phil Wood, Partner Comedia
Some argue that in encouraging local creative clusters the English regions are, at best wasting their time, and at worst undermining the competitiveness of London and therefore UK plc. What do the RDAs expect from the creative industries, are the expectations realistic and can the industry deliver? And is cluster strategy helpful or a distracting fad? Evidence drawn from the largest ever study of the creative industries in an English region may shed some light on these and other questions.

Capacity Building in Local Cultural Planning - The Municipal Cultural Planning Project (MCPP)
Greg Baeker, Managing Director ACP (Arts and Cultural Planning) Consulting
Local government in Canada today is limited by cultural policy models and assumptions inherited from senior levels of government out of synch with the realities of cities. The information and research base to inform decision-making is also weak and still developing. The Municipal Cultural Planning Project was a response to these challenges. It employed a series of web based knowledge transfer and exchange tools that will be described and evaluated in this session.
