CICERONE studies Europe's cultural and creative industries. These industries create products with high symbolic and aesthetic values, thereby helping us shape the places we live in and the lifestyles we develop. We owe them the books we read, the buildings we utilize, the films we watch and the clothes we wear. Cultural and creative industries are also important catalysts for innovation making them vital for a vibrant and resilient European economy. CICERONE wants to better understand how cultural and creative industries work and how they respond to new challenges in a changing world. Through this we can learn how best to optimize support for these industries to enable their full societal and economic potential.CICERONE takes an innovative approach. We start from the notion that cultural and creative industries operate in complex and often cross border networks which link different places to different activities across different industry production stages (creation, production, distribution, exchange and archiving). Which forms do these networks take? Where do they interact or intersect? How are they locally embedded throughout Europe?CICERONE unravels, maps and compares production networks by providing cross border comparative case studies in architecture, archives, libraries, cultural heritage, artistic crafts, design, festivals, performing and visual arts, music, publishing, radio and the audio-visual sector (film, TV, games and multimedia).By adopting the production network approach CICERONE opens a new window on how best to understand the dynamics and (local) impact of Europe's cultural and creative industries in an age of hyper-globalisation. Through this approach CICERONE will generate unique data and gain new insights, thus helping to develop new and smarter policies to support these vital industries.
