Independent research & policy recommendations for the UK's creative industries. Led by Newcastle University with the RSA
About us
The Creative PEC provides independent research and policy recommendations to support the inclusive and sustainable growth of the UK's creative industries. We are led by Newcastle University, with the Royal Society of Arts (RSA), and funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). The Creative PEC provides a step-change for our three audiences - industry, policymakers and the wider research community - in the quality of evidence for the creative industries. We consult industry about the challenges that the sector faces - from its limited diversity, to skills gaps, barriers to trade, and local growth in the sector. We put these questions to our researchers, and feed the evidence and policy advice back to policymakers. This unique model ensures that our research and policy recommendations are relevant, and meet the needs and priorities of the people working in the sector. Over the next five years, we will publish regular State of the Nation-style reporting in key areas of policy: - R&D, innovation and clusters (led by University of Sussex) - Creative education, skills, talent (led by Work Advance) - Internationalisation (led by Newcastle University) - The arts, cultural and heritage sectors (led by The University of Sheffield) We will also continue to undertake research in critical policy areas such as intellectual property, public service broadcasting, and access to finance. Cutting across all of our work will be two vital research agendas: how to make the creative industries workforce more representative and inclusive, and what changes must the creative industries enact to help tackle the climate emergency.

A project to explore the concept of Creative Corridors - joining up existing creative clusters to become more than the sum of their parts through better collaboration and coordination - takes another step forward this month. Over the past year, The RSA (The royal society for arts, manufactures and commerce), the Creative Industries Policy and Evidence Centre and Arts Council England have been developing a prototype creative corridor model in the North of England to explore the concept's potential. Now they’re launching a policy framework for action, setting out the underlying case for creative corridors, exploring the opportunities and barriers for growth and laying out practical next steps. The report will be launched at a live-streamed event on 24 October, with speakers including CEOs from Arts Council England, Creative PEC and the RSA, along with a panel including Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture Creative Director Shanaz Gulzar, tech entrepreneur and investor Tom Adeyoola and Tracy Brabin, Mayor of West Yorkshire. https://lnkd.in/ehApf_xV

📣 Calling all creative businesses – tell government what you need Last chance for creative businesses to tell government what’s needed on ‘access to finance’ - Creative UK is conducting a landmark study, and they need your help to make the case to government to ensure policy is fit for purpose to support creative businesses. Creative UK can’t do it without you. Help make the case. Please take a few minutes now to complete the survey: https://hubs.ly/Q02LpPgW0 Deadline Friday 13 Sep. Hasan Bakhshi, Director Creative PEC says: “Experience suggests that access to finance is one of the most common factors identified by Creative Industries businesses as a barrier to growth. It's striking therefore that access to finance is amongst those areas most poorly served by the evidence base. This evidence gap helps explain why policymakers have been slow to respond to business calls for investment support. To help address this problem, the Creative PEC is calling on creative businesses to complete a questionnaire we have designed with our colleagues at Creative UK and BVA.” The research is supported by Bloomberg Philanthropies, Creative Industries Council and YouTube.

Creative UK is working to reshape the investment landscape for our sector through our landmark Access to Finance research. We believe that creative businesses: (1) are growing faster than SMEs in many other sectors but (2) find accessing the growth capital they need to grow, HARDER than SMEs in other sectors. We need to gather the relevant data on this so that we can evidence this to government and ensure that policy interventions and government support to help businesses grow, WORKS FOR CREATIVE BUSINESSES. And we need your help to do this. If you are an SME-sized creative organisation in the creative industries, this is your chance have your say and make your voice heard - all you need to do is fill out our Access to Finance survey.
