Project Summary

Greece and Italy have huge cultural and natural assets that can contribute to boost their economic growth and improve people’s quality of life.

"Creative Industries (CI)" - which include advertising, marketing, architecture, arts and crafts, design, fashion, film, video, photography, music, performing arts, publishing, research & development, software, computer games, electronic publishing, and TV/radio - are among the most dynamic sectors in the world economy providing new opportunities for developing countries to leapfrog into emerging high-growth areas of the world economy. They are also considered an important source of commercial and cultural value.
