Creative FLIP stands for Finance, Learning, Innovation and Intellectual Property Rights for the Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI).
The project ran from 2021 until the end of 2023. Building on the achievements of its Pilot Phase (2019-2021), the consortium organized activities supporting the CCS' actors by improving access to finance, issuing recommendations for CCS skills classification, piloting innovative learning concepts and enhancing creative skills development, and boosting knowledge management in the field of IPR for the cultural and creative sectors.
For maximized impact, Creative FLIP strengthened cross-sectoral cooperation, connecting different sectors, policy areas, and the project's four components – Finance, Learning, Innovation, and IP.
During this project cycle, the consortium organized and implemented various activities such as desk research, surveys, focus groups, and international conferences.
With the flagship Creatives Unite and the development of three interactive tools for better access to finance, and information on working conditions and on IPR, Creative FLIP also continuously worked on its resource platform, a one-stop-shop for the sector.
The consortium comprises the Goethe-Institut as lead partner, the European Creative Hubs Network, IDEA Consult, 3s Unternehmensberatung and Intellectual Property Institute Luxembourg.
