Culture, the Creative Economy and Critical Success Factors

My Journey
“those industries which have
their origin in individual creativity, skill and talent and which have potential for wealth and job creation through the generation and exploitation of intellectual property”
DCMS(1998) Mapping Document. Foreword
www.culture.gov.uk/Reference-library
A measurable sector. The Creative Industries...
THREE days after the 1997 general election Chris Smith, the shadow health minister, was summoned to the Cabinet Room at 10 Downing Street and, after a brief chat with Tony Blair, appointed Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport."I had to do some rapid thinking," the MP says. "When the then-named Department of National Heritage was set up in 1992, the tabloids called it the Ministry of Fun and the Ministry of Free Tickets. I wanted the department to be serious as well as fun. I decided to set up a task force on the economic potential of the creative industries."
The creative industries make up one of the UK’s leading industrial sectors, responsible for 1.8 million jobs. In 2014, the Creative Economy was worth £133.3bn, accounting for 8.2% of the UK economy. The UK has a share of around 5% of the global export market for creative goods. As well as their direct economic value, these industries play an important role in catalysing innovation across the wider economy, through the products and services they provide, but also as means of originating and spreading new ideas, knowledge and ways of working. CCI industries are involved in the making and circulating of product that have influence on our understanding of the world
.
For four years running the Creative Industries have grown as a proportion of the total UK GVA. GVA of the Creative Industries increased by 8.9% between 2013 and 2014. This compares to 4.6% for the whole of the UK. Between 1998 and 2014, GVA of the Creative Industries increased by 6% each year.
Created in Britain UK is a global leader in several sectors. The UK has: The largest producer of TV/ radio content in Europe (only the US generates more value from TV exports) Is 2nd only to the US in the global film market with increasing box office receipts The largest publishing industry in Europe exporting more books than any other publishing industry in the world Leads the worlds ranking for advertising excellence Is the 4th largest music producer Is rated the 4th in the world for design Holds one of Europe’s top 4 fashion cities (London – Milan, Paris and Rome) Is a centre of excellence for cultural heritage
Created in Yorkshire
There are approx 158,000 Creative Industries companies (not including sole traders) in the UK. Vast majority of companies are small with fewer than 10 people (77% in creative media; 90% in creative and cultural) – a further half million are sole traders or freelance. Many sectors characterised by high levels of freelancing especially those areas most closely involved in the process of producing the creative content e.g. film production, (80%), performing arts (58%) With some significant exceptions – CCI is not a sector dominated by mature, large employers that can offer secure organisational labour markets/careers

So – a success story...
The value of culture cannot be
expressed only with statistics.
Audience numbers give us a poor
picture of how culture enriches us
Capturing Cultural Value.
John Holden
'Mozart is Mozart because of his music and not because he created a tourist industry in Salzburg .Picasso is important because he taught a century new ways of looking at objects and not because his painting in the Bilbao Guggenheim are regenerating an otherwise derelict northern Spanish port. Van Gogh is valued because of the pain or intensity of his images and colours, and not because he made sunflowers and wooden chairs popular. Absolute quality is paramount in attempting a valuation of the arts; all other factors are interesting, useful but secondary. ‘ (Tusa 1999)
What is the value of culture? The statistics are proving that there is significant economic value to investing in the culture and creative industries. Through their ticket purchases, and time and monetary donations, residents demonstrate the value they place on cultural activities But the sector continues to faces issues of proving its value in a way that can be understood by decision-makers. The cultural sector has had to use the tools and concepts of economics to fully state their benefits. This has meant that investment has been skewed disproportionally to activity that shows immediate financial returns
The power of the Creative & Cultural industries is their ability to deliver economic & social returns, build image and identity, challenge and innovate and make people happy!
Culture
Creativity Intellectual
Property
Wealth
The Creative Economy Creative industries = economic value Cultural industries = social and cultural value But... culture and creativity and the mixture of public sector and commercial provision is necessarily intertwined and their relationship needs to be understood to ensure success
Three interlocking kinds of Cultural Value: Intrinsic Instrumental Institutional
Innovation in the creative industries is driven by an intricate relationship between content and technology; the collaboration between artist and scientist. Good relationships with partners, such as cultural institutions and other organisations in the sector are essential for developing innovation support, fostering the arts and content creation, advancing skills development
“Successful cities seemed to have some things in common – visionary individuals, creative organisations and a political culture sharing a clarity of purpose. They seemed to follow a determined, not a deterministic path. Leadership was widespread, permeating public, private and voluntary sectors. It expressed itself in courageous public initiatives and often risky business investments, and in a tissue of interconnected projects whether for profit or the public good.” Charles Landry 2000
Richard Florida's theory, as expressed in his book, The Rise of the Creative Class, suggests that a creative class, consisting of professionals in innovative and artistic occupations, is the main catalyst for continued development of modern cities. : that the development of cities is intertwined with the existence of the creative class, which in turn contributes to the economy by establishing new, knowledge-based ideas. Its origin as an idea lies in Florida’s explanation of why some regions and localities are prosperous and why some others are not In his book, Cities and the Creative Class, Florida examines two theories: (1) the role that the creative sector plays in the economic development of various regions; and (2) the reasons for the concentration of the creative class in certain areas of the country Those that prosper, he maintains, are those that pay attention to the ‘Creative Class’
Two distinct models of culture led urban regeneration emerged in the 1990s
Culture led regeneration/placemaking
Pre-conditions for establishing acreative city 1.Reassessing success and failure 2.New indicators of success 3.Handling capacity (the ability to turn creative ideas into workable projects) 4.Making the most of creative individuals 5.Deploying the contribution of immigrants (outsiders/insiders) 6.Using catalysts e.g events, organisations, public spaces 7.Balancing cosmopolitanism and localism 8.From multiculturalism to interculturalism 9.Citizen participation 10.Developing (affordable) creative spaces 11.Early wins as staging posts in strategic plan 12.Rethinking urban/city management (more enabling less authoritative)
The values of the creative class – cultural capital
• Individuality: self statement
• Meritocracy: achievement not ascription
• Diversity and openness: social liberalism, tolerance
• The experimental life
“The ideal….is to “live the
life” – a creative life packed full of intense, high-quality multi-dimensional experiences…they favour active, participatory recreation over passive spectator sports. They like indigenous street-level culture – a teeming blend of cafes, sidewalk musicians, and small galleries and bistros, where it is hard to draw the line between participant and observer, or between creativity and its creators.” Florida, R. (2002)
Culture led regeneration/placemaking –cultural capital
My own blunt evaluation of regeneration programmes that don’t have a culture component is they won’t work. Communities have to be energised, they have to be given some hope, they have to have the creative spirit released
(Robert Hughes, Chief Executive of Kirklees Council, 1998).
The term cultural capital refers to non-financial social assets that promote social mobility beyond economic means
People with Cultural Capital are Good customers and Good citizens and Great advocates
Bradford’s bid for European capital of culture 2008
• A high-wage, high-skill, knowledge-based economy, which will provide appropriate jobs for everyone, creating a wealthier population with greater spending power.
• A diversified economy, with particular strengths in:
• Cutting edge e-commerce and communications
• Financial service provision that meets the needs of consumers
• Cultural industries
A District that is a great place to live and
is universally accepted as a major
destination for tourists.
A place where people are justifiably proud of where they live, learn, work and play.
The city centre will be the focus of Bradford's cultural life. Its vibrant
cultural scene and attractive environment will have seen it develop as
a desirable place to live. The influx of spending power will have given
a boost to city centre businesses, whose profitability will have
attracted a new wave of city centre investment.
The city centre will offer a unique shopping and leisure experience,
differentiated from that of Leeds by reflecting the city's cultural mix.
The imaginative re-use of our architectural heritage will give the city a
character that few others can match.
The city centre's shops, cultural life and attractive environment will
also make it a great place to visit, drawing in more tourists and adding
further spending power.
Cultural strategy will encourage cultural inter-action.
The impact of bidding for the European Capital of Culture 2008 title the competition acted as a powerful catalyst in galvanising Bradford to think strategically about its cultural offer, identity and heritage within a national and European context and in comparison to other drivers. Connections between relevant communities of practice and interest strengthened considerably; issues of responsibility and representation limited the extent to which different residential, cultural or social communities engaged in the bidding process but confidence had been strengthened and a degree
of coherence achieved.

Cultural sector contribution
The year long Illuminate programme came out of the European Capital of Culture bid for 2008 which was eventually won by Liverpool. Recognising the potential of some of the ideas put forward by the cities - like Bradford - who were not chosen, the government created the Urban Cultural Programme fund. Bradford invited Leeds, Sheffield, Hull and York to put the region and its artists on the map. Bradford Illuminate events included the Radical Brontes festival, Delius Week and the Hockney exhibition.
