Creative industries are increasingly seen as strategically significant engine of economic growth, job creation, and social cohesion . The notion of creative industries emerged in the late '90s in political discourse. It groups together such areas as media, multimedia, cinema, music, publishing, video games, interactive software and entertainment, design, advertising, art, shows (OCDE definition). Creative industries are generally characterized by production of symbolic content, recourse to high qualified labour, advanced use of technologies in production processes, tendency to exploit clusters of creative expertise in large cities, reliance on intellectual property rights, world connections, regional strategies that aim to develop public collectivities, brands that are tied to production site (place).
Given the pioneering character of creative industries regarding managerial innovation, this conference seeks to identify emerging management practices with a rallying cry for more diffusion to the whole of traditional industries and that render an account on the specific issues tied to the management of these activities. The Conference will also welcome critical papers which address the limits and the dark side of practices in creative industries, or the unlikely transfers of practices from creative industries to other fields.
This conference aims to set off discussions and debate on avant-garde practices in management, strategy and organization identified within creative industries. We invite authors who are interested to submit researches that cover a wide choice of different epistemic, theoretic and methodological anchorage. Only contributions that make explicit links with creative industries will be examined.
