The creative-industries opportunity
The UK's creative industries are a global success story, from film and television to digital media and design. As an IS-8 priority sector, they matter for growth and cultural influence.
Creative businesses face a familiar paradox: the more successful they become, the harder it is to preserve the quality and agility that made them successful.
