3.1c How can creative industries interventions effectively reach people in local places?

Background

Creative industries are a significant engine for the UK’s growth. Supporting growth is central to DCMS’s work on the Creative Industries Sector Plan, as part of the Industrial Strategy. Understanding ‘what works’ to support the sector’s growth, both to the UK economy as a whole and to specific places is a central theme for this policy portfolio.
