CICERONE

CICERONE

Creative Industries Cultural Economy Production Network (CICERONE) provides policymakers with a unique and innovative perspective from which to understand the cultural and creative industries (CCIs). Applying the Global Production Network approach, CICERONE innovates by exploring the flows of products and ideas that generate the economic and cultural values in and of places, and which also account for the disparities between them. CICERONE will translate this new research into a stakeholder network, and an observatory, whose designs are reflective of the network approach.

SHARE

SHARE

In 2018, the European Commission launched SHARE (SportHub: Alliance for Regional development in Europe) aiming to promote the role of sport and physical activity in regional development. SHARE takes the shape of a platform gathering the sport movement, academia, cities and regions which work together to ensure that sport and physical activity are better taken into account for EU, national and regional policy making, especially in the framework of the Cohesion Policy 2021-2027. KEA is the scientific and public affairs coordinator of the SHARE initiative, ensuring the management of the stakeholders’ network, drafting policy papers on possibilities of regional development through sport and developing capacity-building and awareness-raising activities across Europe in the form of conferences and workshops.

Sparks

Sparks

Sparks (2015-2018) is an awareness-raising project which showed Europeans from all walks of life that they can get involved in science and that various stakeholders share the responsibility for research and innovation. Taking place across 29 European countries, Sparks bridged the gap between the super-fast pace of scientific innovation and society through a unique touring exhibition and over 230 participatory activities.

Creative Spin

Creative Spin

‘Creative SpIN – Creative Spillovers for Innovation’ (2012-2014) was a project with a view to create a thematic network across Europe which would address the challenges of how best to connect cultural and creative industries with other sectors to stimulate a “spill over” effect. As lead expert, KEA provided assistance to design actions featuring innovative formats and to prepare thematic reports, a practical toolkit to stimulate spillovers etc.
