Creativeworks
Creativeworks is a multi-million pound project, combining academic knowledge and entrepreneurial skill led by a consortium of universities, businesses and arts organisations in one of four ‘Knowledge Exchange Hubs for the Creative Economy’; each with an equal share of £16m funding from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC).
Over four years, the Hubs will build new partnerships and commercial opportunities between academia and the ‘Creative Economy’, which comprises artistic industries, museums, libraries, and other cultural institutions.
Creativeworks London is led by Queen Mary London University and will focus on the Creative Economy in the capital, liaising with numerous industry partners including ScenePool, alongside major cultural institutions such as the V&A, BBC, the British Museum and the British Library.
